Abstract
UThCeS5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. U3+ is bonded to seven S2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing US7 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of U–S bond distances ranging from 2.68–2.89 Å. Th4+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Th–S bond distances ranging from 2.85–3.04 Å. Ce3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–S bond distances ranging from 2.89–3.02 Å. There are five inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded to one U3+, two equivalent Th4+, and two equivalent Ce3+ atoms to form SCe2Th2U square pyramids that share corners with four equivalent SCe2Th2U square pyramids, corners with four equivalent SCeThU2 tetrahedra, corners with five equivalent SCe2Th2U trigonal bipyramids, corners with four equivalent SCeThU2 trigonal pyramids, edges with three SCe2Th2U square pyramids, an edgeedge with one SCeThU2 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent SCe2Th2U trigonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one SCeThU2 trigonal pyramid, and a faceface with one SCe2Th2U square pyramid. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded to two equivalent U3+, one Th4+, and one Ce3+ atom to form distorted SCeThU2 tetrahedramore »
