Bis(4-benzoyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1 H -pyrazol-5-olato-κ 2 O , O ′)(methanol-κ O )dioxidouranium(VI) methanol monosolvate

In the title compound, [U(C 17 H 13 N 2 O 2 ) 2 O 2 (CH 3 OH)]·CH 3 OH, the U VI ion is coordinated by seven O atoms in a distorted pentagonal–bipyramidal geometry with two 3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-benzoyl-4,5-dihydro-1 H -pyrazol-5-olate groups with two O atoms in a bidentate chelating coordination mode and by three O atoms, one of which is from a methanol ligand. The crystal packing can be described by alternating layers of complex molecules along the a axis. The structure is stabilized by O—H...N and O—H...O hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions.
