Two Dihydroxo-Bridged Plutonium(IV) Nitrate Dimers and Their Relevance to Trends in Tetravalent Ion Hydrolysis and Condensation
Abstract
We report the room temperature synthesis and structural characterization of a μ2-hydroxobridged PuIV dimer obtained from an acidic, nitric acid solution. The discrete Pu2(OH)2(NO3)6(H2O)4 moiety crystallized with two distinct crystal structures, (1) [Pu2(OH)2(NO3)6(H2O)4]2·11H2O and (2) Pu2(OH)2(NO3)6(H2O)4·2H2O, which differ primarily in the number of incorporated water molecules. High-energy X-ray scattering (HEXS) data obtained from the mother liquor showed evidence of a correlation at 3.7(10) Å but only after concentration of the stock solution. This distance is consistent with the dihydroxo-bridged distance of 3.799(1) Å seen in the solid-state structure as well as with the known Pu-Pu distance in PuO2. The structural characterization of a dihydroxo-bridged Pu moiety is discussed in terms of its relevance to the underlying mechanisms of tetravalent-metal-ion condensation
