Reactions of Neptunium(V) in Alkali-Metal Hydroxides
Abstract
The preparation of two new neptunium hydroxide compounds synthesized in concentrated potassium and rubidium hydroxide is reported. The phases K4[(NpO2)2(OH)6]·4H2O and Rb4[(NpO2)4(OH)8]·2H2O were prepared and their chemical structures determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Raman spectra of the compounds are also presented. The newly synthesized phases are structurally related to Np2O5 and Na[NpO2(OH)2]. The potassium-containing phase reported here consists of infinite chains of edge-sharing neptunium hydroxide polyhedra but lacking the cation–cation interactions (CCIs) observed in Np2O5 and Na[NpO2(OH)2]. Rb4[(NpO2)4(OH)8]·2H2O is a an expanded three-dimensional framework based on NpO2+ CCIs like those observed in Np2O5 and Na[NpO2(OH)2]. Together these complexes begin to develop a structural series of neptunium(V) oxides and hydroxides of varying dimensionalities within the alkali-metal series. Furthermore, the potential roles of the alkali-metal cations and neptunyl(V) CCIs in directing the resulting structures are discussed.
