The review presents a bird-eye view on the state of research in the field of giant
nonbiological discrete metal complexes and ions of nanometer size, which are structurally …

Uranium-containing polyoxometalates (U-POMs), an important class of actinide cluster
compounds, are the products of the assembly of uranium or uranium and POMs. These …

Searching for new chemically durable and radiation-resistant absorbent materials for
actinides and their fission products generated in the nuclear fuel cycle remain highly …

Uranyl peroxide clusters containing from 16 to 124 uranyl ions self-assemble in aqueous
solution and exhibit tremendous topological complexity. Most of these clusters are cages …

Superatoms are nanometer-sized molecules or particles that form ordered lattices,
mimicking their atomic counterparts. Hierarchical assembly of superatoms gives rise to …

For 11 years now, the structural diversity and aesthetic beauty of uranyl–peroxide capsules
have fascinated researchers from the diverse fields of mineralogy, polyoxometalate …

Solid UO2 dissolution and uranium speciation in aqueous solutions that promote formation
of uranyl peroxide macroanions was examined, with a focus on the role of alkali metals. UO2 …

The self-assembly of uranyl peroxide polyhedra into a rich family of nanoscale cage clusters
is thought to be favored by cation templating effects and the pliability of the intrinsically bent …

Combination of uranium, peroxide, and mono-(Na, K) or divalent (Mg, Ca, Sr) cations under
alkaline aqueous conditions results in the rapid formation of anionic uranyl triperoxide …

A unique case of a uranyl-silver heterometallic 3-fold interpenetrating network (U-Ag-2, 6-
DCPCA) from a multifunctionalized organic ligand, 2, 6-dichloroisonicotinic acid, in the …
