Preparation and crystal structure of the addition compound MeLi·U[OCH(CMe3)2]4, a compound with a uranium to carbon σ-bond
Abstract
Reaction of MeLi and U[OCH(CMe3)2]4 gives the addition compound, LiU(Me)[OCH(CMe3)2]4 which in the solid state has a geometry based upon square pyramidal uranium with the apical site occupied by a methyl group and the four basal sites being occupied by oxygen atoms of the alkoxide ligand, two of which form bridges to the lithium atom.
