Searching for suitable methods to construct all-inorganic cage materials by using
polyoxometalates (POMs) as secondary building units (SBUs) has been of great interest …

The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of uranium speciation using vibrational
spectroscopy methods including Raman and IR. Uranium is a naturally occurring …

Uranyl peroxide clusters containing from 16 to 124 uranyl ions self-assemble in aqueous
solution and exhibit tremendous topological complexity. Most of these clusters are cages …

This Review addresses the use of X‐ray and neutron scattering as well as X‐ray absorption
to describe how inorganic nanostructured materials assemble, evolve, and function in …

Molecular metal-oxo clusters are important intermediates between hydrated metal ions and
metal oxides. They help elucidate the formation processes of metal oxides in nature and in …

Studtite and meta-studtite are the only two uranyl peroxides found in nature. Sparsely
soluble studtite has been found in natural uranium deposits, on the surface of spent nuclear …

Spectator ions have known and emerging roles in aqueous metal‐cation chemistry,
respectively directing solubility, speciation, and reactivity. Here, we isolate and structurally …

Room temperature calorimetry methods were developed to describe the energy landscapes
of six polyoxometalates (POMs), Li–U24, Li–U28, K–U28, Li/K–U60, Mo132, and Mo154, in …

Solid UO2 dissolution and uranium speciation in aqueous solutions that promote formation
of uranyl peroxide macroanions was examined, with a focus on the role of alkali metals. UO2 …

Aqueous solutions of lithium uranyl triperoxide, Li4 [UO2 (O2) 3](LiUT), were irradiated with
gamma rays at room temperature and found to form the uranyl peroxide cage cluster, Li24 …
