The electronic structures of a series of closely related U({eta}{sup 5}-C{sub 5}H{sub 5}){sub 3}L (L = -CH{sub 3}, -NH{sub 2}, -BH{sub 4}, - NCS) complexes has been studied using the SCF Hartree-Fock-Slater first-principles discrete variational X{alpha} method in combination with HeI and HeII UV photoelectron spectroscopy. The theoretical results reproduce the experimental HeI and He II photoelectron spectroscopic data, thus providing a reliable description of the metal-ligand bonding. 29 refs., 9 figs., 6 tabs.
