Their redox chemistry is especially different, since they can access highly oxidized ions and very electron rich species.\u0026nbsp; In our laboratory, we have been taking advantage of the ability of these elements to attain high coordination numbers and support species with many actinide-element multiple bonds. In this presentation, a family of uranium imido complexes will be presented, along with a uranium(VI) pentakis (imido) tetranion, as well as an unusual thorium series supported by redox active ligands. These ligands facilitate redox chemistry at this otherwise redox-inactive metal, thus facilitating the synthesis of an unusual a terminal oxo species, derived from activation of dioxygen. Spectroscopic, structural, magnetic and computational data that support formation of these new compounds will also be presented. \u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EA colloquium seminar\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"School of Chemistry \u0026 Biochemistry - Colloquium Seminar with Professor Suzanne Bart (Purdue University)"}],"uid":"36441","created_gmt":"2023-08-10 20:39:37","changed_gmt":"2023-09-07 20:38:51","author":"slawrence67","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2023-09-28T15:30:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2023-09-28T16:30:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2023-09-28T16:30:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2023-09-28 19:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2023-09-28 20:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2023-09-28 20:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"MoSE - G011","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"85951","name":"School of Chemistry and Biochemistry"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"177814","name":"Postdoc"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EHost\u003C\/strong\u003E: Prof. Henry S.
