Encapsulated Uranium Cyanide Clusters in Fullerene Cages Revealed

Encapsulated Uranium Cyanide Clusters in Fullerene Cages Revealed

The study reports the synthesis and characterization of a novel uranium cyanide cluster, UCN6C, stabilized inside a fullerene cage, showing a rare side-on coordination of cyanide to uranium. This provides new insights into actinide bonding and chemistry.

Abstract Synopsis

  • The study reports the synthesis and characterization of a novel uranium cyanide cluster, UCN6C, stabilized inside a fullerene cage, showing a rare side-on coordination of cyanide to uranium.
  • Bonding analysis indicates strong donation from cyanide and covalent interactions with the carbon cage, leading to an elongated CN bond and ambiguous uranium oxidation states between U(III) and U(II).
  • This finding offers new insights into actinide chemistry by revealing a unique triangular uranium cyanide arrangement, expanding understanding of uranium’s bonding versatility.]
