Organoneptunium chemistry

Summary

Organoneptunium chemistry is the chemical science exploring the properties, structure, and reactivity of organoneptunium compounds, which are organometallic compounds containing a carbon to neptunium chemical bond.[1] Several such compounds exist even though the element itself, neptunium, is man-made and highly radioactive: tricyclopentadienylneptunium-chloride,[2][3] tetrakis(cyclopentadienyl)neptunium(IV)[4] and neptunocene Np(C8H8)2.
