Uranyl acetate

Description:
Uranyl acetate is a chemical compound with the formula UO2(C2H3O2)2, consisting of uranyl ions (UO2^2+) and acetate ions (C2H3O2^-). It appears as a yellow crystalline solid and is known for its solubility in water and organic solvents. Uranyl acetate is primarily used in nuclear chemistry and radiochemistry, particularly in the preparation of uranyl salts and as a reagent in various analytical techniques. It exhibits a characteristic yellow color due to the presence of the uranyl ion, which is a linear coordination complex. The compound is also notable for its potential use in biological studies, as it can interact with biomolecules. However, it is important to handle uranyl acetate with caution due to its radioactive properties and potential toxicity. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and adherence to regulatory guidelines, are essential when working with this substance.
