title: Selective oxo functionalization of the uranyl ion with 3d metal cations.
abstract: The linear uranyl dication [UO2]2+ can be bound in one of two coordination sites in the ditopic Pacman-shaped pyrrolic macrocyle H4L. Incorporation of Mn2+, Fe2+, or Co2+ cations in the second donor compartment affords the first uranyl complexes with a transition-metal-functionalized oxo group.
