A systematic investigation of uranyl borates under different synthetic conditions resulted in five new 2D compounds, namely, (H₃O)[(UO₂)(BO₃)], Li[(UO₂)(BO₃)]·(H₂O), α-K₄[(UO₂)₅(BO₃)₂O₄], β-K₄[(UO₂)₅(BO₃)₂O₄] and K_2.5[(UO₂)₅(BO₃)₂O_2.5(OH)_1.5]·(H₂O)_2.5. (H₃O)[(UO₂)(BO₃)] and Li[(UO₂)(BO₃)]·(H₂O) were obtained from hydrothermal reactions at 220 °C using the same mineralizer. Both materials possess the uranophane sheet topology with different symmetry of the unit cells. In the structure of (H₃O)[(UO₂)(BO₃)] and Li[(UO₂)(BO₃)]·(H₂O), UO₇ pentagonal bipyramids share edges and vertexes with four BO₃ planar triangles. α-K₄[(UO₂)₅(BO₃)₂O₄] and β-K₄[(UO₂)₅(BO₃)₂O₄] are polytypes. α-K₄[(UO₂)₅(BO₃)₂O₄] was synthesized from a high-temperature solid-state reaction under ambient pressure; whereas β-K₄[(UO₂)₅(BO₃)₂O₄] was obtained from a high-temperature/high-pressure (HT/HP) reaction. Both structures have an identical anion topology, but β-K₄[(UO₂)₅(BO₃)₂O₄] crystallizes in space group with higher symmetry. In K_2.5[(UO₂)₅(BO₃)₂O_2.5(OH)_1.5]·(H₂O)_2.5, which was obtained from a hydrothermal reaction, UO₇ polyhedra share vertexes and edges with two independent BO₃ triangles, forming the most complex uranyl borate layers among all five compounds. The different synthetic routes, novel topologies, thermal behavior and Raman spectra are discussed.
