Holistic Assessment of Actinide-Borohydride Covalency Using NMR and X-ray Absorption Spectroscopies
Abstract The influence of metal-ligand covalency on actinide electronic properties and reactivity continues to be a topic of intense interest given its implications for nuclear and radiochemical applications. Extensive work has focused on developing spectroscopic methods that can...

ABSTRACT High‐valent oxyanions, such as chromate (Cr VI O 4 2− ) and pertechnetate ( 99 Tc VII O 4 − ), are highly soluble, weakly coordinating, and exceptionally stable, making their removal from water and nuclear waste extremely challenging. Here, we report a redox‐coupled meta...

ABSTRACT Developing long‐life, high‐capacity sulfur‐based electrodes from earth‐abundant elements remains a major challenge because of structural degradation and polysulfide dissolution during multielectron conversion reactions. Here, we report a hybrid amorphous Mn x Mo 3 S 13 –...
