Binding within the first coordination sphere of the dioxoactinide ion is observed for the crown ether ligand in the complex ion [NpO 2 ([18]crown‐6)] + 1 , which is readily formed on adding [18]crown‐6 to an aqueous solution of NpO 2 + or NpO 2 2+ in dilute HClO 4 or CF 3 SO 3 H. The structure of the complex was confirmed by the X‐ray structure analysis and spectroscopic data of 1 [ClO 4 ].
