Treatment of plutonium metal with 1.5 equiv of bromine in tetrahydrofuran (thf) led to isolation of PuBr3(thf)4 (1), which is a new versatile synthon for exploration of non-aqueous Pu(III) chemistry.

We present the first magnetic phase of an ionic liquid with anion−π interactions, which displays a three-dimensional (3D) magnetic ordering below the Néel temperature, TN = 7.7 K. In this material, ...

New work could help in the development of materials that host exotic coherent quantum states under ambient conditions ...
