Uranium hexoxide is an unusual, theoretically possible compound of uranium in which the uranium atom would be attached to six oxygen atoms.^[1]^[2]

Structure and bonding

Uranium hexoxide is predicted to have octahedral symmetry. However other forms have been studied. In the ¹O_h the oxygen atoms are oxide ions (O^2-). In the ¹D₃ form there are three peroxide ions (O₂^2-). The ³D_2h form has two oxo oxygens and two pairs of superoxide (O₂^-).^[2]
