Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity of a Uranium(VI) Carbene Imido Oxo Complex**

چکیده
We report the uranium(VI) carbene imido oxo complex [U(BIPM(TMS))(NMes)(O)(DMAP)2] (5, BIPM(TMS) = C(PPh2 NSiMe3)2; Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2; DMAP = 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine) which exhibits the unprecedented arrangement of three formal multiply bonded ligands to one metal center where the coordinated heteroatoms derive from different element groups. This complex was prepared by incorporation of carbene, imido, and then oxo groups at the uranium center by salt elimination, protonolysis, and two-electron oxidation, respectively. The oxo and imido groups adopt axial positions in a T-shaped motif with respect to the carbene, which is consistent with an inverse trans-influence. Complex 5 reacts with tert-butylisocyanate at the imido rather than carbene group to afford the uranyl(VI) carbene complex [U(BIPM(TMS))(O)2(DMAP)2] (6).

A new one-dimensional uranium(VI) coordination polymer, [UO2(μ-DMP)2(TMP)]n (1) (DMP is dimethyl phosphate and TMP is trimethyl phosphate), was prepared from the reaction of UO2(NO3)2.6H2O and TMP in in THF (THF is tetrahydrofuran) as a solvent. Suitable crystals of this complex for crystal structure determination were obtained by slow evaporation of the produced yellow solution at room tempera...

The preparation of a family of bis(imido) uranium(VI) complexes stabilized by mono- and bidentate pyrrolyl ancillary ligands is described. X-ray crystallographic studies of dipyrrolylmethane (dpm) derivatives show that the pyrrolyl coordination mode in these uranium(VI) ions is unexpected in comparison to analogous transition metal and lanthanide chemistry. The ability of the coordinated pyrrol...
