Exploration of composition space in templated uranium sulfates.

The phase stability of organically templated uranium sulfates in the [UO(2)(CH(3)CO(2))(2).2H(2)O/homopiperazine/H(2)SO(4)] and [UO(2)(CH(3)CO(2))(2).2H(2)O/N,N-dimethylethylenediamine/H(2)SO(4)] systems has been studied using composition space. Two new compounds were formed in each system; [N(2)C(5...

Description
Summary:The phase stability of organically templated uranium sulfates in the [UO(2)(CH(3)CO(2))(2).2H(2)O/homopiperazine/H(2)SO(4)] and [UO(2)(CH(3)CO(2))(2).2H(2)O/N,N-dimethylethylenediamine/H(2)SO(4)] systems has been studied using composition space. Two new compounds were formed in each system; [N(2)C(5)H(14)](2)[UO(2)(SO(4))(3)] (USO-17) and [N(2)C(5)H(14)][UO(2)(H(2)O)(SO(4))(2)] (USO-18) contain homopiperazine, and [N(2)C(4)H(14)][UO(2)(SO(4))(2)] (USO-19) and [N(2)C(4)H(14)][(UO(2))(2)(H(2)O)(SO(4))(3)].H(2)O (USO-20) contain N,N-dimethylethylenediamine. The relative stability of the products from each system is dependent upon the reactant mole fractions in the initial reaction gel. Crystal data: USO-17, a = 14.4975(3) A, b = 11.9109(3) A, c = 13.0157(3) A, beta = 110.475(1) degrees, monoclinic, C2/c (No. 15), Z = 4; for USO-18, a = 7.6955(2) A, b = 11.7717(3) A, c = 14.7038(4) A, orthorhombic, P22(1)2(1) (No. 18), Z = 4; for USO-19, a = 9.3322(1) A, b = 9.7743(2) A, c = 13.8897(3) A, orthorhombic, P2(1)2(1)2(1) (No. 19), Z = 4; and for USO-20, a = 11.2460(2) A, b = 10.5387(2) A, c = 17.0432(3) A, beta = 92.9884(6) degrees, monoclinic, P2(1)/c (No. 14), Z = 4.
