Abstract. CuLaS2, monoclinic, P2Jb, a = 6.646 (2), b = 6.938 (2), c = 7.325 (2)A, ~= 98.73 (2)°, Z = 4, d m = 5.29 (8), d x = 5.3 Mg m -3. The structure has been solved by direct methods and refined by leastsquares methods to a final R value of 0.063 for 999 reflexions. The structure is built up of sheets parallel to the b and c axes. One sheet is made of (LaaS) tetrahedra, and has the composition (LaS); the second sheet is formed by (CuS4) tetrahedra arranged in pairs, which alternate with pairs of empty tetrahedra.

In both structures the Ge atoms 0108-2701/91/091799-05503.00 are in a tetrahedral coordination while the Cu atoms are in triangular or in tetrahedral coordinations of Se atoms. At 328 K CusGeSe6 exhibits a reversible phase transition, the passage of the high-temperature form to the low-temperature one resulting from ordering of the Cu atoms.
Description and Structural Study of a New Family of Sheet Compounds of the General Composition (UO)2RS3 (R = Gd to Lu and Y)
The reaction of UOS was tested on various sulfides. It was only positive in the case of the R2S3 sulfides at very high temperature (1500—1900°C) with formation of the title compounds. The crystal structure was solved in the case of (UO)2ErS3: tetragonal cell, space group 14/m mm, a = 3.785, c = 20.83 Å, Z = 2. A sheet structure is formed by alternating (UO) and (ErS3) sheets. The apparent oxydation state of U is 3.5, and there is only one serie of positions for this element. But it is presently impossible to choose between mixed valencies or intermediate valency to represent the electronic state of U.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
