Americium trihydride is a binary inorganic compound of americium and hydrogen with the chemical formula AmH3.[2][3][4]

Physical properties

The compound crystalyzes with a hexagonal crystal structure. Stable at low temperatures.[5]

Chemical properties

Reaction of americium trihydride with nitrogen at 750 °C produces americium nitride:[6]

AmH3 + N2 → AmN + NH3
