Abstract

(Figure Presented) Caught in the actinide: A tetranuclear azido/nitrido uranium anion containing eight end-on bridging azido ligands and a μ4 interstitial nitrido ligand has been isolatedand structurally characterized (see 1D chain; U green, Cs orange, I magenta, N blue, C white). A new two-step procedure has been developed to promote the cluster assembly by oxidation of [UI3-(thf)5] with a preformeduranium heptaazido complex.
