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 ...

Lanthanide mechanoluminescence

Jean-Claude Bünzli

Mechanoluminescence (ML) is the emission of light consecutive to a mechanical force or stress imposed to a crystalline material. Many inorganic and organic compounds present this phenomenon that is known for over 400 years. Lanthanide and uranyl salts were ...

Partitioning of uranyl between ferrihydrite and humic substances at acidic and circum-neutral pH

Gabrielle Dublet

As part of a larger study of the reactivity and mobility of uranyl (U(VI) O-2(2+)) cations in subsurface environments containing natural organic matter (NOM) and hydrous ferric oxides, we have examined the effect of reference humic and fulvic substances on ...

Nitrogen reduction and functionalization by a multimetallic uranium nitride complex

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Ivica Zivkovic, Lucile Sylvie Danielle Chatelain, 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 ...

Water-Mediated Ion Pairing: Occurrence and Relevance

Sylvie Roke

We present an overview of the studies of ion pairing in aqueous media of the past decade. In these studies, interactions between ions, and between ions and water, are investigated with relatively novel approaches, including dielectric relaxation spectrosco ...

Investigation of the water exchange mechanism of the Plutonyl(VI) and Uranyl(VI) ions with quantum chemical methods

François Rotzinger, Antonio Prlj

The water exchange reactions of PuO2(OH2)(5) and UO2(OH2)(5) were investigated with density functional theory (DFT) and wave function theory (WFT). Geometries and vibrational frequencies were calculated with DFT and CPCM hydration. The electron ...
