Structural Snapshots of Cluster Growth from {U6 } to {U38 } During the Hydrolysis of UCl4

Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Lucile Sylvie Danielle Chatelain, Radmila Faizova

Herein we report the assembly of large uranium(IV) clusters with novel nuclearities and/or shapes from the controlled hydrolysis of UCl4 in organic solution and in the presence of the benzoate ligands. {U6}, {U13}, {U16}, {U24}, {U38} oxo and oxo/hydroxo c ...

Effect of Aging on the Stability of Microbially Reduced Uranium in Natural Sediment

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Barbora Bártová, Yuheng Wang, Luca Loreggian, Sophie Louise Bretagne, Agnès Novotny

Reductive immobilization of uranium has been explored as a remediation strategy for the U-contaminated subsurface. Via the in situ biostimulation of microbial processes, hexavalent U is reduced to less soluble tetravalent species, which are immobilized wit ...

Colloidal Size and Redox State of Uranium Species in the Porewater of a Pristine Mountain Wetland

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Barbora Bártová, Manon Frutschi, Gabrielle Dublet, Ashley Richards Brown, Giada Chantal Zünd

Uranium (U) speciation was investigated in anoxically preserved porewater samples of a natural mountain wetland in Gola di Lago, Ticino, Switzerland. U porewater concentrations ranged from less than 1 mu g/L to tens of mu g/L, challenging the available ana ...

Four-electron Reduction and Functionalization of N₂ by a Uranium(III) Bridging Nitride

Marinella Mazzanti, Marta Falcone

N2 is a cheap and widely available but very unreactive molecule. Notably, the only industrial process for the conversion of dinitrogen is the Haber-Bosch process to form ammonia, but under very harsh conditions (high temperature and pressure). Here, we rev ...

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 ...

The small RNA RyhB is a regulator of cytochrome expression in Shewanella oneidensis

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Karin Lederballe Meibom

Shewanella oneidensis produces an extensive electron transfer network that results in metabolic flexibility. A large number of c-type cytochromes are expressed by S. oneidensis and these function as the fundamental electron transport chain proteins. Althou ...

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 ...

Pin-by-Pin Treatment of LWR Cores with Cross Section Equivalence Procedures and Higher-Order Transport Methods

Petra Mala

This thesis presents a systematic study on the merits and limitations on using pin-by-pin resolution and transport theory based approaches for nuclear core design calculations. Starting from the lattice codes and an optimal cross section generation scheme, ...

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 ...

A versatile route to homo- and hetero-bimetallic 5f–5f and 3d–5f complexes supported by a redox active ligand framework

Marinella Mazzanti, Julie Renée Michelle Andrez, Davide Toniolo

The salt-elimination reaction of the complex [Na2U(bis-salophen)] with metal halides provides an entry to the synthesis of well-defined homobimetallic uranium–uranium and rare heterobimetallic uranium–cobalt and uranium–nickel complexes supported by a redo ...
