Abstract
A series of U(IV) complexes bearing alkyl and chloride ligands in the trans configuration was synthesized and characterized. Starting with the diastereopure U(IV) trans-dichloride complex meso-( tBu2PONO)UCl2(dtbpy) (1, tBu2PONO = 2,6-bis((di-tert-butylphosphino)methanolato)pyridine), four distinct alkyl groups were employed to prepare ( tBu2PONO)U(R)Cl(dtbpy), where R = (trimethylsilyl)methyl (neosilyl), 2a, R = 2,2-dimethyl propyl (neopentyl), 2b, and R = 2-methyl-2-phenyl propyl (neophyl), 2c. Alkylation occurs with specificity but generates a predominant species and a minor species corresponding to anti/syn regioisomers relative to the tBu2P groups of the ligand. For synthesis using R = methyl, the dimethyl complex ( tBu2PONO)U(Me)2(dtbpy), 2d, was prepared; the addition of 1 equiv of MeLi produced a mixture of products. Complexes 2a-2d were characterized using single crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD), UV-vis-nIR, and 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopies.

Abstract
The first uranium bis(acyl)phosphide (BAP) complexes were synthesized from the reaction between sodium bis(mesitoyl)phosphide (Na(mesBAP)) or sodium bis(2,4,6-triisopropylbenzoyl)phosphide (Na(trippBAP)) and UI3(1,4-dioxane)1.5. Thermally stable, homoleptic BAP complexes were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, when appropriate, for the elucidation of the electronic structure and bonding of these complexes. EPR spectroscopy revealed that the BAP ligands on the uranium center retain a significant amount of electron density. The EPR spectrum of the trivalent U(trippBAP)3 has a rhombic signal near g = 2 (g1 = 2.03; g2 = 2.01; and g3 = 1.98) that is consistent with the EPR-observed unpaired electron being located in a molecular orbital that appears ligand-derived. However, upon warming the complex to room temperature, no resonance was observed, indicating the presence of uranium character.

Abstract
The isostructural compounds of the trivalent actinides uranium, neptunium, plutonium, americium, and curium with the hydridotris(1-pyrazolyl)borato (Tp) ligand An[η3 -HB(N2 C3 H3 )3 ]3 (AnTp3 ) have been obtained through several synthetic routes. Structural, spectroscopic (absorption, infrared, laser fluorescence) and magnetic characterisation of the compounds were performed in combination with crystal field, density functional theory (DFT) and relativistic multiconfigurational calculations. The covalent bonding interactions were analysed in terms of the natural bond orbital (NBO) and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) models.
