An unsupported uranium-rhenium complex prepared by alkane elimination

  • 1. School of Chemistry, University of Nottingham (United Kingdom)

Description

An unsupported uranium-rhenium bond has been prepared by alkane elimination by treatment of a cyclometallated alkyl uranium triamidoamine complex with rhenocene hydride. DFT analysis reveals σ and π combinations in the U-Re bond, but the rhenium contributions dominate and an atoms-in-molecules analysis reveals a closed-shell, predominantly ionic uranium-rhenium interaction.
