We report the synthesis, characterization, and iodine capture application of a novel thorium-organic nanotube, TSN-626, [Th6O4(OH)4(C6H4NO2)7(CHO2)5(H2O)3]·3H2O. The classification as a metal-organic nanotube (MONT) distinguishes it as a rare and reduced dimensionality subset of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs); the structure is additionally hallmarked by low node connectivity. TSN-626 is composed of hexameric thorium secondary building units and mixed O/N-donor isonicotinate ligands that demonstrate selective ditopicity, yielding both terminating and bridging moieties. Because hard Lewis acid tetravalent metals have a propensity to bind with electron donors of rival hardness (e.g., carboxylate groups), such Th-N coordination in a MOF is uncommon. However, the formation of key structural Th-N bonds in TSN-626 cap some of the square antiprismatic metal centers, a position usually occupied by terminal water ligands. TSN-626 was characterized by using complementary analytical and computational techniques: X-ray diffraction, vibrational spectroscopy, N2 physisorption isotherms, and density functional theory. TSN-626 satisfies design aspects for the chemisorption of iodine. The synergy between accessibility through pores, vacancies at the metal-oxo nodes, and pendent N-donor sites allowed a saturated iodine loading of 955 mg g-1 by vapor methods. The crystallization of TSN-626 diversifies actinide-MOF linker selection to include soft electron donors, and these Th-N linkages can be leveraged for the investigation of metal-to-ligand bonding and unconventional topological expressions.
