Multielectron Redox Reactions Involving C- C Coupling and Cleavage in Uranium Schiff Base Complexes
Résumé
The reaction of U(III) with Schiff base ligands and the reduction of U(IV) Schiff base complexes both promote C−C bond formation to afford dinuclear or mononuclear U(IV) amido complexes, which can release up to four electrons to substrates through the oxidative cleavage of the C−C bond.
