Altering the spectroscopy, electronic structure, and bonding of organometallic curium(III) upon coordination of 4,4′−bipyridine

Abstract Structural and electronic characterization of (Cp′3Cm)2(μ−4,4′−bpy) (Cp′ = trimethylsilylcyclopentadienyl, 4,4′−bpy = 4,4′−bipyridine) is reported and provides a rare example of curium−carbon bonding. Cp′3Cm displays unexpectedly low energy emission that is quenched upon coordination by 4,4...
