Isolation of a [Fe(CO)4]2–-Bridged Diuranium Complex Obtained via Reduction of Fe(CO)5 with Uranium(III)

Treatment of the U(III) complex, [(C5Me5)2U(OMes)(THF)], Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2, with Fe(CO)5 forms [{(C5Me5)2(MesO)U}2(μ2-(OC)2Fe(CO)2)] with the bridging, tetrahedral Fe(CO)4 moiety. This complex ha...
