Low-valent uranium iodides: Straightforward solution syntheses of UI 3 and UI4 etherates

Uranium turnings react with elemental iodine in diethyl ether at room temperature, with sonication and/or stirring, over a period of days to afford UI3, UI4(OEt2)2, or UI 4(OBun2) depending on the stoichiometry or ether solvent. This is the first room temperature, and thus safe and convenient, synthesis of UI3.
