Title: Materials Data on UP2 by Materials Project

Abstract

UP2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. U6+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine P3- atoms. There are a spread of U–P bond distances ranging from 2.73–2.88 Å. There are two inequivalent P3- sites. In the first P3- site, P3- is bonded to five equivalent U6+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing PU5 square pyramids. In the second P3- site, P3- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent U6+ and four equivalent P3- atoms. All P–P bond lengths are 2.67 Å.
