Highly Valence-Diversified Binuclear Uranium Complexes of a Schiff-Base Polypyrrolic Macrocycle: Prediction of Unusual Structures, Electronic Properties, and Formation Reactions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
On the basis of relativistic density functional theory calculations, homo- and heterovalent binuclear uranium complexes of a polypyrrolic macrocycle in a U-O-U bridging fashion have been investigated. These complexes show a variety of oxidation states for uranium ranging from III to VI, which have been confirmed by the calculated electron-spin density on each metal center. An equatorially 5-fold uranyl coordination mode is suitable for hexavalent uranium complexes, while silylation of the uranyl oxo is favored by pentavalent uranium. Uranyl oxo ligands are not required anymore for the coordination environment of tetra- and trivalent uranium because of their replacement by strong donors such as tetrahydrofuran and iodine. Optimization of binuclear U(VI)-U(III) complexes with various coordinating modes of U(III), donor numbers, and donor types reveals that 0.5-1.0 electron has been transferred from U(III) to U(VI). Consequently, U(V)-U(IV) complexes are more favorable. Electronic structures and formation reactions of several representative uranium complexes were calculated. For example, a 5f-based σ(U-U) bonding orbital is found in the diuranium(IV) complex, rationalizing the fact that it shows the shortest U-U distance (3.82 Å) among the studied binuclear complexes.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
