Actinium oxyfluoride is an inorganic compound, with the chemical formula AcOF. It is radioactive. It crystallises in a calcium fluoride structure.[3] It can be obtained by reacting actinium fluoride with ammonia and water:[4]

AcF3 + 2 NH3 + H2O → AcOF + 2 NH4F[α]

The reaction proceeds completely at 1200 °C, and unreacted AcF3 will remain at lower temperatures.[5]
