Reactions of thiophene with transition metal complexes have been studied for decades as models for hydrodesulfurization (HDS). While actinide metals have been used in heterogeneous HDS catalysts, no studies with molecular actinide complexes have been reported. In this talk, new chemistry between thiophene and molecular actinide complexes will be presented.
