About 30 years ago organometallic compounds of the rare earth metals were a curiosity.
That changed slowly in the late 1970s and the early 1980s after the availability of modern …

During the past ten years the organometallic chemistry of the lanthanides has witnessed
enormous growth. One of the main reasons for this development was the finding that …

The electronic structure of f-element compounds is complex due to a combination of
relativistic effects, strong electron correlation and weak crystal field environments. However …

Developing targeted α-therapies has the potential to transform how diseases are treated. In
these interventions, targeting vectors are labelled with α-emitting radioisotopes that deliver …

Oxidative halogenation with trityl chloride provides convenient access to CeIV and UIV
chloroamides [M (N {SiMe3} 2) 3Cl] and their N‐heterocyclic carbene derivatives,[M (L)(N …

In the gas phase, novel network structures were found in organometallic clusters between
metal atoms produced by laser ablation and organic ligand molecules. For 3d metal …

Previous magnetic, spectroscopic, and theoretical studies of cerocene, Ce (C8H8) 2, have
provided evidence for non-negligible 4f-electron density on Ce and implied that charge …

Kondo coupling of f and conduction electrons is a common feature of f-electron
intermetallics. Similar effects should occur in carbon ring systems (metallocenes). Evidence …

New synthetic procedures for the preparation of Ce (cot) 2, cerocene, from [Li (thf) 4][Ce (cot)
2], and Ce2 (cot) 3 in high yield and purity are reported. Heating solid Ce (cot) 2 yields Ce2 …

We report comparable levels of covalency in cerium–and uranium–carbon multiple bonds in
the iso-structural carbene complexes [M (BIPMTMS)(ODipp) 2][M= Ce (1), U (2), Th (3); …
