description

The title complex, [UO2(C5H7O2)2(C3H7NO)], was obtained as an unexpected product from our attempts to prepare UIV complexes with imine-type ligands. The title complex was also prepared directly from [UO2(OAc)2]·2H2O, pentane-2,4-dione and DMF. The UVI atom has a penta­gonal-bipyramidal geometry and is surrounded by seven O atoms. The bond distances and angles are similar to those found previously in similar structures.
