In the last few years, considerable progress has been made in the synthesis and
characterization of complexes containing actinide–ligand multiple bonds, especially in …

The chemistry of the early to middle actinide elements (Th− Cm) is of critical importance to
the nuclear energy industry. A need for knowledge of the chemical behavior and speciation …

The forefront of research into the complexes of uranium reveals chemical transformations
that challenge and expand our view of this unique element. Certain ligands form multiple …

Uranyl (UO22+) is an exceptionally stable molecular species, characterized by a linear OUO
geometry and short U–O bonds. Its two oxo ligands are thought to be inert to exchange and …

There is a growing interest in uranium coordination chemistry, particularly as it relates to
metal–ligand multiple bonding, and in the last decade significant progress has been made …

Sterically pressured mid-to high-valent uranium complexes with an aryloxide substituted
triazacyclononane ligand scaffold,[((RArO) 3tacn) 3–], were studied for carbon dioxide …

This chapter reviews the reaction chemistry of uranium complexes with small molecules of
industrial and biological importance. Specifically, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen monoxide …

Lead has been used as a heavy atom derivative to solve the phase problem in the crystal
structures of a variety of protein including the calcium proteins calmodulin and …

Molecular complexes of uranium are capable of activating a range of industrially and
economically important small molecules such as CO, CO2, and N2; new and often …

The new homoleptic ate U (III) siloxide [K (18c6)][U (OSi (O t Bu) 3) 4] 2 was prepared in
69% yield by reduction of [U (OSi (O t Bu) 3) 4] 3 with KC8. The reaction of the neutral U (III) …
