The actinide tetrachloride-DMSO complexes are particularly interesting (18). There is a pronounced change in stability proceeding along the actinide series with 1 5 complexes being the most stable for thorium and protactinium and the 1 3 complexes for the remaining actinides. The 1 7 complex could not be obtained pure with thorium tetrachloride and under the preparative conditions required, namely, recrystallization from hot dimethyl sulfoxide, protactinium(IV) was oxidized. The solid 1 5 and 1 3 protactinium tetrachloride compounds are, in fact, unstable in dry nitrogen, behavior which contrasts markedly with the stability of the tetrahalide-phosphine oxide and DMA complexes.
