Coordination of pertechnetate [TcO4]- to actinides.
The ability of [TcO(4)](-) to coordinate directly to tetra- and hexa-valent actinides in the presence of organic P[double bond, length as m-dash]O ligands is confirmed in the crystallographically characterised complexes [UO(2)(TcO(4))(2)(Ph(3)PO)(3)] and [Th(TcO(4))(4)((n)Bu(3)PO)(4)].
