Synthesis and Structural Characterization of the First Uranium Cluster Containing an Isopolyoxometalate Core

Abstract

Known for the Group 6 metals for over 100 years, the family of isopolyoxometalates has now been extended to include the first uranium derivative 1, which contains a [U6O13] core. In comparison to the well-studied transition metal analogues, the structural and electronic properties of 1 reflect the chemical attributes of the actinides. Cp≠=1,2,4-tBu3C5H2.
