Uranium complexes can be stabilized in a wide range of oxidation states, ranging from UII to
UVI and a very recent example of a UI complex. This review provides a comprehensive …

The purpose of this review is to give an overview of three important N-bidentate ligands: 1,
10-phenanthroline (phen), 2, 2′-bipyridine (bpy), and ethylenediamine (en). We have not …

Reduction of [{η5-1, 2, 4-(Me3Si) 3C5H2} 2UCl2](1) using potassium graphite (KC8) in the
presence of 2, 2′-bipyridine forms the uranium bipyridyl metallocene [{η5-1, 2, 4-(Me3Si) …

The uranium bipyridyl metallocene,[η5-1, 3-(Me3Si) 2C5H3] 2U (bipy)(2), is readily
accessible in good yield by adding potassium graphite (KC8) to a mixture of [η5-1, 3-(Me3Si) …

The reactivity of the thorium bipyridyl metallocene (Cp2 t Bu) 2Th (bipy)(1; Cp2 t Bu= η 5-1, 3-
(Me3C) 2C5H3) toward a series of small molecules was explored, and the emerging …

The 2, 2′-bipyridyl-6, 6′-dicarboxylate ligand (bdc) has been shown in prior work to
effectively capture the uranyl (VI) ion, UO22+, from aqueous solutions. However, the redox …

Oxide is an attractive linker for building polymetallic complexes that provide molecular
models for metal oxide activity, but studies of these systems are limited to metals in high …

Reduction of (η5-C5Me5) 2ThCl2 (1) with potassium graphite (KC8) in the presence of 2,
2′-bipyridine forms the thorium bipy metallocene (η5-C5Me5) 2Th (bipy)(2) in good yield …

The uranium bipyridyl metallocene,[η5-1, 2, 4-(Me3C) 3C5H2] 2U (bipy)(2), prepared from
[η5-1, 2, 4-(Me3C) 3C5H2] 2UCl2 (1) and 2, 2′-bipyridine in the presence of potassium …

The thorium bipyridyl metallocene (Cp3 t Bu) 2Th (bipy)(1; Cp3 t Bu= η5-1, 2, 4-(Me3C)
3C5H2) shows a rich reactivity toward a series of small molecules. For example, complex 1 …
