Abstract
The heterobimetallic complexes [{UO2Ln(py)2(L)}2], combining a singly reduced uranyl cation and a rare-earth trication in a binucleating polypyrrole Schiff-base macrocycle (Pacman) and bridged through a uranyl oxo-group, have been prepared for Ln = Sc, Y, Ce, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Er, Yb, and Lu. These compounds are formed by the single-electron reduction of the Pacman uranyl complex [UO2(py)(H2L)] by the rare-earth complexes Ln(III)(A)3 (A = N(SiMe3)2, OC6H3Bu(t)2-2,6) via homolysis of a Ln-A bond. The complexes are dimeric through mutual uranyl exo-oxo coordination but can be cleaved to form the trimetallic, monouranyl "ate" complexes [(py)3LiOUO(μ-X)Ln(py)(L)] by the addition of lithium halides. X-ray crystallographic structural characterization of many examples reveals very similar features for monomeric and dimeric series, the dimers containing an asymmetric U2O2 diamond core with shorter uranyl U═O distances than in the monomeric complexes. The synthesis by Ln(III)-A homolysis allows [5f(1)-4f(n)]2 and Li[5f(1)-4f(n)] complexes with oxo-bridged metal cations to be made for all possible 4f(n) configurations. Variable-temperature SQUID magnetometry and IR, NIR, and EPR spectroscopies on the complexes are utilized to provide a basis for the better understanding of the electronic structure of f-block complexes and their f-electron exchange interactions. Furthermore, the structures, calculated by restricted-core or all-electron methods, are compared along with the proposed mechanism of formation of the complexes. A strong antiferromagnetic coupling between the metal centers, mediated by the oxo groups, exists in the U(V)Sm(III) monomer, whereas the dimeric U(V)Dy(III) complex was found to show magnetic bistability at 3 K, a property required for the development of single-molecule magnets.

Abstract
The ortho C-H bond activation of several pyridine and pyridine N-oxide derivatives mediated by Cp(2)An(IV)(CH(3))(2) and Cp(2)An(III)(CH(3)) (Cp = C(5)H(5) and An = U, Np, Pu) have been investigated at the DFT level. For uranium(IV) complex, an excellent agreement with experimental observations is found, and particularly in the case of 2-picoline where only ortho sp(2) C-H activation is observed without any sp(3) C-H activation. These differences of reactivity can be explained by the charges distribution at the metathesis transition state level. A predictive study of the reactivity of neptunium and plutonium complexes with pyridine and pyridine N-oxide is reported. This study shows that neptunium and plutonium have almost the same reactivity. The C-H activation mediated by actinide (III) complexes have found to be more kinetically and thermodynamically favorable than for actinide (IV) complexes. The influence of 5f electrons on organoactinide reactivity is found to be small by comparing implicit and explicit treatment of 5f electrons.
