Bimetallic Uranium Complexes with 2,6-Dipicolinoylbis(N,N-Dialkylthioureas).

ABSTRACT: 2,6-Dipicolinoylbis(N,N-dialkylthioureas), H₂L^R, readily react with uranyl salts under formation of monomeric or dimeric complexes of the compositions [UO₂(L^R)(solv)] (solv = donor solvents such as H₂O, MeOH or DMF) or [{UO₂(L^R)(µ-OMe)}₂]^2- (1). In such complexes, the uranyl ions are exclusively coordinated by the "hard" O,N,O or N,N,N donor atom sets of the central ligand unit and the lateral sulfur donor atoms do not participate in the coordination. Different conformations have been found for the dimeric anions. The bridging methanolato ligands and the four uncoordinated sulfur atoms can adopt different orientations with respect to the equatorial co
