| Abstract | Pentavalent uranylspecies are crucial intermediates in transformationsthat play a key role for the nuclear industry and have recently beendemonstrated to persist in reducing biotic and abiotic aqueous environments.However, due to the inherent instability of pentavalent uranyl, littleis known about its electronic structure. Herein, we report the synthesisand characterization of a series of monomeric and dimeric, pentavalenturanyl amide complexes. These synthetic efforts enable the acquisitionof emission spectra of well-defined pentavalent uranyl complexes usingphotoluminescence techniques, which establish a unique signature tocharacterize its electronic structure and, potentially, its role inbiological and engineered environments via emission spectroscopy. |
