The development of new processes for the selective and sustainable transformation of abundant small molecules constitutes one of the major research areas in inorganic and organometallic chemistry. These molecules as CO2, CO, N2 and H2 are abundant reservoi ...

Molecular nitrogen (N-2) is cheap and widely available, but its unreactive nature is a challenge when attempting to functionalize it under mild conditions with other widely available substrates (such as carbon monoxide, CO) to produce value-added compounds ...

Thermolysis of the nitride-bridged diuranium(IV) complex Cs{(-N)U(OSi((OBu)-Bu-t)(3))(3)} (1) showed that the bridging nitride behaves as a strong nucleophile, promoting N-C bond formation by siloxide ligand fragmentation to yield an imido-bridged sil ...

The synthesis, structure, and reactivity with CO2 and CS2 of new U(IV) complexes with a redox-active Schiff base are reported. The reaction of UI3 with the heptadentate Schiff base ligand 2,2',2 ''-tris(salicylideneimino)-triethylamine (trensal) did not le ...

Here we show that a scaffold combining siloxide ligands and a bridging oxide allows the synthesis and characterization of the stable dinuclear uranium(IV) hydride complex [K-2{U(OSi((OBu)-Bu-t)(3))(3)(mu-O)(mu-H)(2)}], 2, which displays high reductive ...

Novel efficient chemical processes involving cheap and widely accessible carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide under mild conditions for the production of valuable chemical products are highly desirable in the current energetic context. Uranium nitride materia ...

The synthesis and reactivity of uranium compounds supported by the tris-tert-butoxysiloxide ligand is surveyed. The multiple binding modes of the tert-butoxysiloxide ligand have proven very well suited to stabilize highly reactive homo- and heteropolymetal ...

N2 is a cheap and widely available but very unreactive molecule. Notably, the only industrial process for the conversion of dinitrogen is the Haber-Bosch process to form ammonia, but under very harsh conditions (high temperature and pressure). Here, we rev ...

Uranium nitrides are important materials with potential for application as fuels for nuclear power generation, and as highly active catalysts. Molecular nitride compounds could provide important insight into the nature of the uranium–nitride bond, but curr ...

Herein, we report the synthesis and characterisation of the first terminal uranium(V) sulfide and a related UV trithiocarbonate complex supported by sterically demanding tris(tert-butoxy)siloxide ligands. The reaction of the potassium-bound UV imido comple ...

Cleavage of dihydrogen is an important step in the industrial and enzymatic transformation of N2 into ammonia. The reversible cleavage of dihydrogen was achieved under mild conditions (room temperature and 1 atmosphere of H2) by the molecular uranium nitri ...
