Title: Materials Data on U2Cu(PO10)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

(UPO6)2CuO4(O2)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nmm space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two 1,2,3,4-tetraoxacyclobutane molecules; two CuO4 clusters; and two UPO6 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In each CuO4 cluster, Cu is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.77 Å. O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cu atom. In each UPO6 sheet, U is bonded to six O atoms to form UO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.81–2.26 Å. P is bonded to four equivalent O atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent UO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 34°. All P–O bond lengths are 1.55 Å. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one U atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one U atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one U and one P atom.
