Crystal structure of a CsF-uranyl-salen complex. An unusual cesium-chlorine coordination.
Complexation of CsF with the ditopic uranyl-salen receptor results in a solid-state structure, in which the coordination sphere of cesium is filled by ligation to one of the chlorine atoms of the solvent chloroform. This X-ray structure is the first example of chloroform ligation to an alkali-metal ion.
