Competitive coordination of the uranyl ion by perchlorate and water - The crystal structures of UO2(ClO4)(2)center dot 3 H2O and UO2(ClO4)(2)center dot 5 H2O and a redetermination of UO2(ClO4)(2)center dot 7 H2O

By slow evaporation of solutions containing UO2(ClO4)(2) and an excess of HClO4, single crystals of [UO2(ClO4)(2)(H2O)(3)] (1) and [UO2(H2O)(5)](ClO4)(2) (2) were obtained and their structures were ...
