(Dibenzyl sulfoxide-kappa O)bis(1,3-diphenylpropane-1,3-dionato-kappa(2)O,O')dioxouranium(VI).
In the title compound, [UO(2)(C(15)H(11)O(2))(2)(C(14)H(14)OS)], the U(VI) atom is coordinated by seven O atoms in a distorted pentagonal-bipyramidal geometry. Both diphenylpropane-1,3-dionate systems are nearly planar. The sulfoxide moiety is in a distorted tetrahedral geometry, while its two aromatic rings are nearly orthogonal to one another. The crystal packing is stabilized by two bifurcated hydrogen-bonding interactions involving both uranyl O atoms.
