Uranium-nitride discovery throws up surprise insight into chemical bonding

Description: Published in the leading journal Nature Chemistry, recent work by David King, a PhD student in the research group led by Dr Steve Liddle, has shown that uranium can engage in chemical bonding that is surprisingly covalent. Remarkably, the findings have shown that uranium can behave in much the same way as its counterparts in the well-known transitional metals such as chromium, molybdenum and tungsten.

David King awarded prize for research excellence

Description: The School of Chemistry congratulates David King, a PhD student in the research group of Steve Liddle, who has been awarded a prestigious Dean Moore Scholarship by the University of Nottingham. This postgraduate prize award recognises David's research on uranium-nitride triple bonds in order to better understand the chemical bonding and reactivity of uranium.
