Neptunium(III) chloride orneptunium trichloride is an inorganic compound with a chemical formula NpCl₃. This salt is strongly radioactive.

Neptunium(III) chloride can be produced by reducingneptunium(IV) chloride byammonia orhydrogen at 350~400 °C:^[1]

2 NpCl₄ + H₂ → 2 NpCl₃ + 2 HCl

Neptunium(III) chloride hydrolyzes at 450 °C and forms anoxychloride NpOCl.^[1]
