The generation of high-purity thorium is the precondition for next-generation nuclear energy; however, this remains a challenging task. To this end, we present herein an ultrasimple technique with the combination of crystallization plus phase transformation. Crystallization into ECUT-68 is found to show almost 100% selective uptake of Th(IV) over rare earth and UO ions, while multistep phase transformation from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to inorganic compounds is found to directly generate inorganic Th(IV) compound and then Th(IV) solution, suggesting its superior application in the generation of high-purity thorium.
