Exceptional uranium(VI)-nitride triple bond covalency from 15N nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and quantum chemical analysis

Determining the covalency of actinide chemical bonding is a fundamentally important challenge. Here, the authors report a 15N nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy study of a terminal uranium-nitride, revealing exceptional NMR properties and covalency that redefine 15N NMR parameter space and acti...
