Complexes of main group metals containing amidinate and guanidinate ligands with an
additional functional/donor group are reviewed. Amino-, imino-, amido-, alkoxy-, phenoxy …

Although thorium comprises roughly 8.1 ppm of the Earth, its chemical characteristics and
properties have been relatively underexplored. In large part due to its radioactivity and …

Terminal uranium oxido, sulfido, and selenido metallocenes were synthesized, and their
reactivity was comprehensively studied. Heating of an equimolar mixture of [η5-1, 2, 4 …

A fundamental aspect of any element is the range of oxidation states accessible for useful
chemistry. This tutorial describes the recent expansion of the number of oxidation states …

The Ln3+ and Ln2+ complexes, Cp′ 3Ln, 1,(Cp′= C5H4SiMe3) and [K (2.2. 2-
cryptand)][Cp′ 3Ln], 2, respectively, have been synthesized for the six lanthanides …

Neptunium was the first actinide element to be artificially synthesized, yet, compared with its
more famous neighbours uranium and plutonium, is less conspicuously studied. Most …

Reduction of the Th3+ complex Cp′′ 3Th, 1 [Cp′′= C5H3 (SiMe3) 2], with potassium
graphite in THF in the presence of 2.2. 2-cryptand generates [K (2.2. 2-cryptand)][Cp …

The ubiquity of the cyclopentadienyl ligand permits us to use its complexes as
representative examples for the description of recent highlights in organometallic and more …

The high stability of the+ IVoxidation state limits thorium redox reactivity. Here we report the
synthesis and the redox reactivity of two Th (IV) complexes supported by the arene‐tethered …

The synthesis, structure, and reactivity of a uranium metallacyclopropene were
comprehensively studied. Reduction of (η5-C5Me5) 2UCl2 (1) with potassium graphite …
