description: U8Bi2O19 is alpha bismuth trifluoride-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are eight inequivalent U4+ sites. In the first U4+ site, U4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.41 Å. In the second U4+ site, U4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.32–2.36 Å. In the third U4+ site, U4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.36 Å. In the fourth U4+ site, U4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.37 Å. In the fifth U4+ site, U4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.35 Å) and seven longer (2.36 Å) U–O bond lengths. In the sixth U4+ site, U4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.35 Å) and four longer (2.36 Å) U–O bond lengths. In the seventh U4+ site, U4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.32–2.36 Å. In the eighth U4+ site, U4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.40 Å. There are two inequivalent Bi3+ sites. In the first Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.52 Å. In the second Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.33 Å) and four longer (2.50 Å) Bi–O bond lengths.
