Abstract
Density functional theoretical methods are used to study heterobimetallic compounds of a new form of binucleating Schiff-base polypyrrolic macrocycle, denoted [An(VI)O(2)(1)H(2)L], [An(V)O(2)(1)H(2)L](-), [An(VI)O(2)(TM)L] and [An(V)O(2)(TM)L](-), and containing actinyl ions AnO(2)(n+) (An = U, Np, Pu; n = 1, 2) and 3d transition metals (TM): no TM = 1, Mn = 2, Fe = 3, Co = 4, and Zn = 5. Calculated bond orders (TM-O2 = 0.36 to 0.81) provide evidence for partial bond formation between the transition metal (TM) and the actinyl-endo-oxygen for all 24 cases studied. Redox potentials for [An(VI)O(2)(1)H(2)L]/[An(V)O(2)(1)H(2)L](-) couples were found to have the same Np(VI/V) > Pu(VI/V) > U(VI/V) trend as previously studied for the [AnO(2)(H(2)O)(5)](2+/1+) couples, where Np(VI) is the most easily reduced to Np(V). Extrapolation from the earlier penta-aqua actinyl results is used to predict [An(VI)O(2)(1)H(2)L]/[An(V)O(2)(1)H(2)L](-) redox couples of U = -1.10 eV, Np = 0.25 eV, and Pu = 0.01 eV. The calculated redox potential for [U(VI)O(2)(1)H(2)L]/[U(V)O(2)(1)H(2)L](-) is within 0.08 eV of the value found by cyclic voltammetry (-1.18 eV, in THF/NBu(n)(4)BF(4) solvent).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
