The effect of iron binding on uranyl(V) stability

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Radmila Faizova

Here we report the effect of UO2+⋯Fe2+ cation–cation interactions on the redox properties of uranyl(V) complexes and on their stability with respect to proton induced disproportionation. The tripodal heptadentate Schiff base trensal3− ligand allowed the sy ...

Unexpected Insights about Cation-Exchange on Metal Oxide Nanoparticles and Its Effect on Their Magnetic Behavior

Davide Deiana

Tuning the magnetic behavior of nanoparticles via the control of their features has always been challenging because these features are mostly intertwined. In the last years, a novel synthetic approach based on cation-exchange has been reported, and one of ...

Synthesis and Characterization of a Water Stable Uranyl(V) Complex

Rosario Scopelliti, Radmila Faizova, Marinella Mazzanti, Anne-Sophie Chauvin

We have identified a polydentate aminocarboxylate ligand that stabilizes uranyl(V) in water. The mononuclear [UO2(dpaea)]X, (dpaeaH2 = Bis(pyridyl-6-methyl-2-carboxylate)-ethylamine; X = CoCp2*+ or X = K(2.2.2.cryptand) complexes have been isolated from an ...

Conceptual Design of a Sustainable Waste Burning Molten Salt Reactor

Boris Aviv Hombourger

For an energy source to qualify as sustainable, it must maximize the efficiency with which it uses natural resources while minimizing the amounts of waste it produces. Currently deployed nuclear power plants however use a very limited amount of the energy ...

First-principles calculations of momentum distributions of annihilating electron-positron pairs in defects in UO2

Julia Anna Wiktor

We performed first-principles calculations of the momentum distributions of annihilating electron-positron pairs in vacancies in uranium dioxide. Full atomic relaxation effects (due to both electronic and positronic forces) were taken into account and self ...

Reduction of a Cerium(III) Siloxide Complex To Afford a Quadruple-Decker Arene-Bridged Cerium(II) Sandwich

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Rory Patrick Kelly

Organometallic multi-decker sandwich complexes containing f-elements remain rare, despite their attractive magnetic and electronic properties. The reduction of the Ce-III siloxide complex, [KCeL4] (1; L = OSi(OtBu)(3)), with excess potassium in a THF/tolue ...

Nitrogen reduction and functionalization by a multimetallic uranium nitride complex

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Lucile Sylvie Danielle Chatelain, Ivica Zivkovic, Marta Falcone

Molecular nitrogen (N-2) is cheap and widely available, but its unreactive nature is a challenge when attempting to functionalize it under mild conditions with other widely available substrates (such as carbon monoxide, CO) to produce value-added compounds ...

Isolation of a Star-Shaped Uranium(V/VI) Cluster from the Anaerobic Photochemical Reduction of Uranyl(VI)

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Lucile Sylvie Danielle Chatelain

Actinide oxo clusters are an important class of compounds due to their impact on actinide migration in the environment. The photolytic reduction of uranyl(VI) has potential application in catalysis and spent nuclear fuel reprocessing, but the intermediate ...

Generation of high-brightness spectrally flat supercontinuum in 1900-2450 nm range inside a small core thulium-doped fiber amplifier

Camille Sophie Brès, Davide Grassani, Svyatoslav Kharitonov, Sida Xing, Thibault Emmanuel North

We demonstrate the generation of high-brightness supercontinuum inside thuliumdoped fiber amplifier in 1950-2450nm spectral range with 1.7W output power and 32% slope efficiency, seeded by tunable 2000nm mode-locked laser and assisted by 3H4-3H5/3F4-3H6 th ...

Influence of defect distribution on the reducibility of CeO2-x nanoparticles

Maria Chiara Spadaro

Ceria nanoparticles (NPs) are fundamental in heterogeneous catalysis because of their ability to store or release oxygen depending on the ambient conditions. Their oxygen storage capacity is strictly related to the exposed planes, crystallinity, density an ...
