Unusual bonding situations in Th( iv ) and U( iv )–Al( iii ) pnictogen complexes

Key Points

• The aim is to enhance the understanding of electronic structures in early actinides using new synthetic methods.
• Applied a synthetic methodology with Al(i) precursor
• Utilized [(C5Me5)Al]4
• Focused on thorium and uranium dipnictido complexes
• Progressed understanding of electronic structures in actinides
• Introduced a novel synthetic route for complex formation
