Abstract
Investigation of the reactivity of the redox-active molybdenum oxide cluster, 
, toward low-valent uranium (
, bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) is reported. Structural and spectroscopic analyses provide insight into the interactions of the actinide and metalloligand in the product, 
. Reactivity studies reveal the metalloligand functions as a redox reservoir for uranium.
