Four new actinide chalcogenides—namely, Ba2Cu4USe6, Ba2Cu2ThSe5, Ba2Cu2USe5, and Sr2Cu2US5—were synthesized via solid-state methods at 1173 K. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies show that Ba2Cu4USe6 crystallizes in a new structure type in space group C2h5–P21/c of the monoclinic system, whereas the three other c…
