Structural chemistry of actinide chloride complexes

Actinide organometallic chemistry.

The stoichiometric and catalytic chemistry of metal-organic compounds having actinide-to-carbon bonds is in a stage of rapid growth. Chemical, structural, and bonding characteristics have been identified which differ in interesting and informative ways from those of d-block transition element compounds.

Speciation and structural characterization of Plutonium and Actinide-organic complexes in surface and ground waters

This report summarizes work after 3 years of the project. Activities so far included: 1) development and testing of sampling and analytical techniques for both actinides and organic constituents from natural waters, 2) confirmation of Pu and organic carbon concentrations, 3) field work at the Savannah River site (SRS) and at Hanford site (HS), and sample analysis, and 4) preparation of publicat...

Synthesis and structural chemistry of non-cyclopentadienyl organolanthanide complexes.

ion upon treatment with B(C6F5)3 in THF to generate the cationic species [(MAC)Y(CH2SiMe3)][B(C6F5)3(CH2SiMe3)]. However, this salt was found to be highly unstable and could not be isolated as a pure material.97 Fryzuk et al. have developed a remarkable organoyttrium chemistry around the phosphorus-containing macrocycle syn-{P2N2} ({P2N2} ) [PhP(CH2SiMe2NSiMe2CH2)2PPh]). The starting material w...
