Abstract

In the title complex, [U(C17H14BrN3O2S)O2(C2H5OH)], the U(VI) cation has a distorted penta-gonal-bipyramidal environment with the penta-gonal plane defined by two N and two O atoms of the tetra-dentate Schiff base ligand and the O atom of the ethanol mol-ecule. Two oxide O atoms occupy the axial positions. The azomethine C=N group and the Br atom are disordered over two positions in a 0.8356 (18):0.1644 (18) ratio. The ethyl-thiolyl group is disordered over three conformations in a 0.8356 (18):0.085 (6):0.079 (6) ratio, and the ethanol ligand is also disordered over three orientations in a 0.470 (16):0.277 (19):0.253 (18) ratio. In the crystal, mol-ecules form centrosymmetric dimers through hydrogen bonding between ethanol O-H donors and phenolate O-atom acceptors. Weak C-H⋯O inter-actions consolidate the crystal packing.
