Materials Data on Na8ThU(MoO4)8 by Materials Project
Na8UTh(MoO4)8 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-4 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NaO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with six MoO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent NaO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.39–2.60 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NaO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with six MoO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent NaO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.39–2.57 Å. U4+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.36 Å) and four longer (2.38 Å) U–O bond lengths. Th4+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.42 Å) and four longer (2.43 Å) Th–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Mo6+ sites. In the first Mo6+ site, Mo6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form MoO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six NaO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Mo–O bond distances ranging from 1.77–1.85 Å. In the second Mo6+ site, Mo6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form MoO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six NaO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Mo–O bond distances ranging from 1.76–1.86 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Na1+, one U4+, and one Mo6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Na1+, one Th4+, and one Mo6+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Na1+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Na1+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Na1+, one Th4+, and one Mo6+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Na1+, one U4+, and one Mo6+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Na1+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Na1+ and one Mo6+ atom.
