  • The most common oxidation state for lanthanide elements is +3, and, beyond cerium, examples of these elements exhibiting higher oxidation states remain scarce. Now, a molecular complex of praseodymium in the +5 oxidation state has been synthesized; this compound exhibits a unique electronic structure driven by N 2p and Pr 4f orbital contributions.

  • Owing to the propensity for uranium(III) compounds to undergo disproportionation, uranium-element multiple bonds involving uranium(III) oxidation states remain rare. Here the authors report hexauranium-methanediide rings that formally contain uranium(III)- and uranium(IV)-methanediides supported by alternating halide and arene bridges.

  • The number of known high-oxidation-state transuranic compounds remains limited, and these typically feature high coordination numbers and/or multiply-bonded donor atoms. Now, a tetrahedral, pentavalent neptunium complex supported by four monoanionic ligands has been isolated and characterized. This complex is stable in the solid state and undergoes a proton-coupled electron transfer reaction in solution.

  • IRMOF-74 materials have thus far been thought to undergo only simple crystal lattice expansion upon gas adsorption. Here, Smit and co-workers demonstrate that these MOFs undergo a unique complex deformation upon argon uptake, changing how we view the fundamentals of adsorption in this series.
