Abstract
Reaction of [UO2 Cl2 (THF)3 ] with 3 equivalents of LiC6 Cl5 in Et2 O resulted in the formation of first uranyl aryl complex [Li(Et2 O)2 (THF)][UO2 (C6 Cl5 )3 ] ([Li][1]) in good yields. Subsequent dissolution of [Li][1] in THF resulted in conversion into [Li(THF)4 ][UO2 (C6 Cl5 )3 (THF)] ([Li][2]), also in good yields. DFT calculations reveal that the U-C bonds in [Li][1] and [Li][2] exhibit appreciable covalency. Additionally, the 13 C NMR chemical shifts for their Cipso environments are strongly affected by spin-orbit coupling-a consequence of 5f orbital participation in the U-C bonds.

Abstract
Surprisingly general effects of trans ligands L on the ligand NMR shifts in third-row transition-metal complexes have been found by quasi-relativistic computations, encompassing 5d10 , 5d8 , and to some extent even 5d6 situations. Closer analysis, with emphasis on 1 H shieldings in a series of linear HAuI Lq complexes, reveals a dominance of spin-orbit (SO) effects, which can change sign from appreciably shielding for weak trans ligands to appreciably deshielding for ligands with strong trans influence. This may be traced back to increasing destabilization of a σ-type MO at scalar relativistic level, which translates into very different σ-/π-mixing if SO coupling is included. For the strongest trans ligands, the σ-MO may move above the highest occupied π-type MOs, thereby dramatically reducing strongly shielding contributions from predominantly π-type spinors. The effects of SO-mixing are in turn related to angular momentum admixture from atomic spinors at the metal center. These SO-induced trends hold for other nuclei and may also be used to qualitatively predict shifts in unknown complexes.

Abstract
General reductive silylation of the UO22+ cation occurs readily in a one-pot, two-step stoichiometric reaction at room temperature to form uranium(IV) siloxides. Addition of two equivalents of an alkylating reagent to UO2 X2 (L)2 (X=Cl, Br, I, OTf; L=triphenylphosphine oxide, 2,2'-bipyridyl) followed by two equivalents of a silyl (pseudo)halide, R3 Si-X (R=aryl, alkyl, H; X=Cl, Br, I, OTf, SPh), cleanly affords (R3 SiO)2 UX2 (L)2 in high yields. Support is included for the key step in the process, reduction of UVI to UV . This procedure is applicable to a wide range of commercially available uranyl salts, silyl halides, and alkylating reagents. Under this protocol, one equivalent of SiCl4 or two equivalents of Me2 SiCl2 results in direct conversion of the uranyl to uranium(IV) tetrachloride. Full spectroscopic and structural characterization of the siloxide products is reported.

Abstract
Prior to the year 2000, non-aqueous uranium chemistry mainly involved metallocene and classical alkyl, amide, or alkoxide compounds as well as established carbene, imido, and oxo derivatives. Since then, there has been a resurgence of the area, and dramatic developments of supporting ligands and multiply bonded ligand types, small-molecule activation, and magnetism have been reported. This Review 1) introduces the reader to some of the specialist theories of the area, 2) covers all-important starting materials, 3) surveys contemporary ligand classes installed at uranium, including alkyl, aryl, arene, carbene, amide, imide, nitride, alkoxide, aryloxide, and oxo compounds, 4) describes advances in the area of single-molecule magnetism, and 5) summarizes the coordination and activation of small molecules, including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitric oxide, dinitrogen, white phosphorus, and alkanes.

Abstract
Why do U react like that? Reaction of 2-Li-C6H4CH2NMe2 with [MCl4(DME)n] (M=Th, n=2; M=U, n=0) results in the formation of a thorium aryl complex, [Th(2-C6H4CH2NMe2)4] or a uranium benzyne complex, [Li][U(2,3-C6H3CH2NMe2)(2-C6H4CH2NMe2)3]. A DFT analysis suggests that the formation of a benzyne complex with U but not with Th is a kinetic and not thermodynamic effect.
