Abstract: The U atom in the title compound, [UO₂(PhCOCHCOPh)₂(H₂O)]·C₁₄H₂₀O₅, is surrounded by seven O atoms at the vertices of a distorted pentagonal bipyramid. The crown ether molecule is not coordinated directly to the U atom, but is linked to the aquabis(dibenzoylmethanato)dioxouranium complex via hydrogen bonds involving the water molecule. The U-O distances range from 1.751  (4) to 2.504  (3)  Å.
