Abstract

Abstract Two new uranyl-organic coordination compounds, UO2(NDC)[(CH3)2SO)]2 ( 1 ) and [UO2(NDC)(CH2OH)2] ( 2 ) (H2NDC = 1,4-naphthalene dicarboxylate), have been synthesized from the solutions of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and ethylene glycol (EG), respectively, through a volatilization method. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses show that compound 1 consists of novel straight chains modified by pairs of DMSO molecules, whereas compound 2 features one-dimensional zigzag chains which are cross-linked by non-coordinating solvent molecules through hydrogen bonding interactions, forming a two-dimensional network. Both 1 and 2 decompose rhodamine B (RhB) molecules efficiently under the irradiation of UV and visible light.
