Popis: Recent years have seen increasing interest in uranyl(VI) photocatalysis. In this study, uranyl complexes were successfully synthesized from ligands L1–L6 and UO2(NO3)2·6H2O under reflux conditions, yielding products 1–6 with yields ranging from 30% to 50%. The complexes were thoroughly characterized using NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and elemental analysis. The results indicate that complexes 1–5 possess a pentagonal bipyramidal geometry, whereas complex 6 exhibits an octahedral structure. The photocatalytic properties of these novel complexes for sp3 C-H bond functionalization were explored. The results demonstrate that complex 4 functions as an efficient photocatalyst for converting C-H bonds to C-C bonds via hydrogen atom transfer under blue light irradiation.
