Neptunium(III) chloride or neptunium trichloride is an inorganic compound with a chemical formula NpCl3. This salt is strongly radioactive.

Production

Neptunium(III) chloride can be produced by reducing neptunium(IV) chloride by ammonia or hydrogen at 350~400 °C:[1]

2 NpCl4 + H2 → 2 NpCl3 + 2 HCl

Chemical properties

Neptunium(III) chloride hydrolyzes at 450 °C and forms an oxychloride NpOCl.[1]
