Abstract

Dicesium Di-μ-sulfatosulphatobisaquothorate(IV), H4O14S3Cs2Th, (M r =821.8) crystallized from water in the monoclinic space groupP21/c (No. 14), witha=6.415(2),b=15.95(1),c=13.078(8) Å,β=90.88(4)°,V=1338(14) Å3,Z=4,D x =4.08 g cm−3, Mo (λ=0.71069 Å),μ=195.8 cm−1,F(000)=1407.3, room temperature, finalR=0.086 for 1699 unique observed reflexions. Two of the sulfate groups are tridentate (chelating and bridging) and the other is bidentate chelating. As the waters are both coordinated the thorium is 10-coordinate. It shows an unusual 2/4/2/2 geometry.
