This chapter reviews the reaction chemistry of uranium complexes with small molecules of industrial and biological importance. Specifically, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen monoxide (NO), dinitrogen (N2), dioxygen (O2), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O), dihydrogen (H2), saturated hydrocarbons, unsaturated hydrocarbons (alkenes, alkynes, and arenes), and water (H2O) are covered. This chapter is limited to molecular systems, and, where appropriate, comparisons with lanthanide or transition metal systems will be made, but are by no means exhaustive. Small-molecule activation studies with uranium do allow for the correlation of molecular-electronic structure/reactivity relationships. These fundamental studies may provide the design criteria for valuable chemical processes and for the development of nuclear waste remediation technologies.
