The large carbon footprint of the Haber–Bosch process, which provides ammonia for
fertilizers but also the feedstock for all nitrogenous commercial products, has fueled the …

Prior to the year 2000, non‐aqueous uranium chemistry mainly involved metallocene and
classical alkyl, amide, or alkoxide compounds as well as established carbene, imido, and …

Molecular nitrogen (N2) is cheap and widely available, but its unreactive nature is a
challenge when attempting to functionalize it under mild conditions with other widely …

Conversion of C–H bonds to C–N bonds via C–H amination promises to streamline the
synthesis of nitrogen-containing compounds. Nitrogen-group transfer (NGT) from metal …

Determining the nature and extent of covalency of early actinide chemical bonding is a
fundamentally important challenge. Recently, X-ray absorption, electron paramagnetic, and …

Uranium nitrides play important roles in dinitrogen activation and functionalization and in
chemistry for nuclear fuels, but the synthesis and isolation of the highly reactive uranium (VI) …

The chemistry of actinide-nitrides has witnessed significant advances in the last ten years
with a large focus on uranium and a few breakthroughs with thorium. Following the early …

A highly efficient and versatile chemical cycle has been developed for the production of
isocyanates through the molecular fixation of N2, CO2 and R3ECl (E= C, Si, and Ge). Key …

Light-driven N2 cleavage into molecular nitrides is an attractive strategy for synthetic
nitrogen fixation. However, suitable platforms are rare. Furthermore, the development of …

To further our fundamental understanding of the nature and extent of covalency in uranium–
ligand bonding, and the benefits that this may have for the design of new ligands for nuclear …
