Praseodymium(III) nitrate is any inorganic compound with the chemical formula Pr(NO₃)₃·xH₂O. These salts are used in the extraction and purification of praseodymium from its ores.^[2] The hexahydrate has been characterized by X-ray crystallography.^[3]

Praseodymium nitrate can be prepared by treating praseodymium oxide with nitric acid:

Pr₂O₃ + 6 HNO₃ → 2 Pr(NO₃)₃ + 3 H₂O
