“…By increasing the length of the alkyl chain, flexible 1,2-ethylenediphosphonic acid (EDP) is produced, which serves as the linker for the construction of five uranyl phosphonates including three sheets and two 3D frameworks [37,38]. In (UO 2 )(H 2 O)(H 2 EDP) (EDP-U1), the EDP ligand is doubly protonated and chelates three uranyl pentagonal bipyramids, forming a layered structure.…”
