  • Preparation of uranium compounds
    Patent number: 8377404
    Abstract: UI3(1,4-dioxane)1.5 and UI4(1,4-dioxane)2, were synthesized in high yield by reacting turnings of elemental uranium with iodine dissolved in 1,4-dioxane under mild conditions. These molecular compounds of uranium are thermally stable and excellent precursor materials for synthesizing other molecular compounds of uranium including alkoxide, amide, organometallic, and halide compounds.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 19, 2012
    Date of Patent: February 19, 2013
    Assignee: Los Alamos National Security, LLC
