PREPARATION OF URANIUM COMPOUNDS

摘要

Ul3(1,4-dioxane)1.5 and Ul4(1,4-dioxane)2, were synthesized in high yield by reacting turnings of elemental uranium with iodine dissolved in 1,4-dioxane under mild conditions. These molecular compounds of uranium are thermally stable and excellent precursor materials for synthesizing other molecular compounds of uranium including alkoxide, amide, organometallic, and halide compounds.
