Actinide coordination chemistry is currently experiencing a renaissance, with the emergence
of exciting and less studied oxidation states, and previously unpredicted magnetic properties …

Semiconductor nanowires (NWs) are nanostructures with a number of novel optical and
electronic properties that offer great promise for applications in areas including …

Reaction of UCl4 with 5 equiv of Li (N CtBuPh) generates the homoleptic U (IV) ketimide
complex [Li (THF) 2][U (N CtBuPh) 5](1) in 71% yield. Similarly, reaction of UCl4 with 5 …

Emission spectroscopy has been used for the first time in a spectroscopic study of a family of
uranium (IV) halide complexes in non-aqueous media. The room temperature electronic …

While no alkylidene complexes of the f elements are known, the use of phosphorano-
stabilized carbene complexes to produce short actinide–carbon bonds has been previously …

This review summarizes the progress in organo-f-element chemistry during the year 2008. A
continuing trend in organolanthanide research is a strong emphasis on applications of …

The importance of uranyl (V)(UO2+) species associated with environmental and geologic
applications is becoming increasingly evident, but the tendency of the uranyl (V) cation to …

A comparative examination of the electronic interactions across a series of trimetallic
actinide and mixed lanthanide-actinide and lanthanum-actinide complexes is presented …

In this report, we describe the photoluminescence of a homoleptic uranium (IV) alkoxide
complex. Excitation of [Li (THF)] 2 [UIV (O t Bu) 6] leads to the first example of …

The ketimide anion R2C N− is an important class of chemically robust ligand that binds
strongly to metal ions and is considered ideal for supporting reactive metal fragments due to …
