Reaction of the terphenyl bis(anilide) ligand [{K(DME)}L] (L = {CH[(2,6-PrCH)NCH]}) with trivalent chloride "MCl" salts (M = Ce, U, Np) yields two distinct products; neutral LM(Cl)(THF) (1) (M = Np, Ce), and the "-ate" complexes [K(DME)][(L)Np(Cl)] (2) or ([LM(Cl)(μ-K(X))]) (2, 2) (M = Ce, U) (X = DME or EtO) (2). Alternatively, analogous reactions with the iodide [MI(THF)] salts provide access to the neutral compounds LM(I)(THF) (3) (M = Ce, U, Np, Pu). All complexes exhibit close arene contacts suggestive of -interactions with the central arene ring of the terphenyl backbone, with 3 comprising the first structurally characterized Pu -arene moiety. Notably, the metal-arene bond metrics diverge from the predicted trends of metal-carbon interactions based on ionic radii, with the uranium complexes exhibiting the shortest M-C distance in all cases. Overall, the data presents a systematic study of f-element M--arene complexes across the early actinides U, Np, Pu, and comparison to cerium congeners.
三联苯双（苯胺）配体[{K（DME）}L]（L = {CH[(2,6-PrCH)NCH]})与三价氯化物“MCl”盐（M = Ce、U、Np）反应生成两种不同的产物；中性的LM(Cl)(THF)（1）（M = Np、Ce），以及“-ate”配合物[K(DME)][(L)Np(Cl)]（2）或（[LM(Cl)(μ-K(X))]）（2, 2）（M = Ce、U）（X = DME或EtO）（2）。或者，与碘化物[MI(THF)]盐进行类似反应可得到中性化合物LM(I)(THF)（3）（M = Ce、U、Np、Pu）。所有配合物都表现出紧密的芳烃接触，表明与三联苯主链的中心芳烃环存在π-相互作用，其中3包含首个结构表征的Pu-芳烃部分。值得注意的是，金属-芳烃键的度量偏离了基于离子半径预测的金属-碳相互作用趋势，在所有情况下铀配合物的M-C距离最短。总体而言，这些数据对早期锕系元素U、Np、Pu的f元素M-芳烃配合物进行了系统研究，并与铈同系物进行了比较。
