Five new mixed-valence NpV/AnVI molybdates of the composition [C(NH2)3]3[(NpVO2)(NpVIO2)(MoO4)3(H2O)]·H2O (1), [C(NH2)3]3[(NpVO2)(NpVIO2)(MoO4)3(H2O)]·3H2O (2), Na3[(NpVO2)(PuVIO2)(MoO4)3(H2O)]·nH2O (3), Na6[(NpVO2)2(UVIO2)(MoO4)5]·13H2O (4), and
LiNa2[(NpVO2)(NpVIO2)2(MoO4)4(H2O)]·4H2O (5) have been synthesized and structurally
characterized. The coordination polyhedra of the NpV and
AnVI atoms in compounds 1–5 are pentagonal bipyramids. The basis of structures 1–3 is anionic layers of the composition [(NpVO2)(AnVIO2)(MoO4)3(H2O)]
n
3n–. Three crystallographically independent
molybdate ions are tridentate-bridging ligands. The water molecule,
which is a part of the anion layer, is coordinated to the NpV atom. The anionic layers in complexes 2 and 3 have the same structure, different from 1. The basis
of structure 4 is anionic layers of the composition [(NpVO2)2(UVIO2)(MoO4)5]
n
6n–, the structure of which differs from the structure
of anionic layers in 1–3. Complex 5 has a three-dimensional (3D) structure. The spectra of all
compounds in the UV–visible and IR ranges were measured and
analyzed.
