U2CuAs2(H4O5)4 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/n space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent U6+ sites. In the first U6+ site, U6+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form UO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one CuO6 octahedra and corners with four equivalent AsO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.81–2.30 Å. In the second U6+ site, U6+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form UO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one CuO6 octahedra and corners with four equivalent AsO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.81–2.31 Å. There are two inequivalent Cu2+ sites. In the first Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CuO6 octahedra that share corners with two UO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.67 Å. In the second Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CuO6 octahedra that share corners with two UO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.67 Å. There are two inequivalent As5+ sites. In the first As5+ site, As5+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form AsO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent UO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 45°. All As–O bond lengths are 1.72 Å. In the second As5+ site, As5+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form AsO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent UO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 46°. All As–O bond lengths are 1.72 Å. There are four inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 1.00 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.01 Å) and one longer (1.64 Å) H–O bond length. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one U6+ and one As5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Cu2+ and two H1+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one U6+ and one Cu2+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one U6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to three H1+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one U6+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one U6+ and one Cu2+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one U6+ and one As5+ atom.
