New hydride derivatives of thorium(IV) and uranium(IV), HM(N(SiMe/sub 3/)/sub 2/)/sub 3/, have been prepared recently. This paper describes the crystal structure of the uranium species, though the hydride ion was not located, and shows that the thorium analogue is isostructural. The reaction chemistry and spectroscopy show that these derivatives are authentic examples of four-coordinate, monomeric hydride, compounds.
