Title: Insight into the nature of M–C bonding in the lanthanide/actinide-biscarbene complexes: a theoretical perspective

Journal Article · · Dalton Transactions
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1039/C8DT02702A· OSTI ID:1466423

The An/Ln–C bonding nature was explored using relativistic theory. Inclusion of Np and Pu extends understanding to later actinides bonding.
