  • Preparation of Anhydrous Uranium Tetrachloride and Measurements on Its Magnetic Susceptibility
    Journal of NUCLEAR SCIENCE and TECHNOLOGY, 8 〔9〕, p. 498～502 (September 1971). Preparation of Anhydrous Uranium Tetrachloride and Measurements on Its Magnetic Susceptibility Tetsuhiko YOSHIMURA*, Chie MIYAKE* and Shosuke IMOTO* Received May 24, 1971 The reaction of UO2 with CCl4 vapor was carried out in a vacuum of 10-5 mmHg at 500℃ in order to prepare UCl4 of high purity. The lattice parameters were calculated from X-ray analysis to be a0=8.278±0.002, c0=7.460±0.009. The product thus ohtained was verified by chemical and X-ray analyses to be of anhydride form. The magnetic susceptibility was measured over the temperature range from liquid N2 to liquid He temperature, which revealed a deviation from the straight 1/X-T relation toward lower temperature. and that the anhydrous compound had ortho- I.

    SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF A SERIES OF URANIUM(IV) SPECIES: Investigating Coordination With a Redox Innocent Triamine Ligand Student Author Selena L. Staun earned a BS complexes containing redox-active ligands, and studies 2+ degree in chemistry with a minor in the reductive silylation of the UO2 cation. in sociology in May 2016; she graduated with department honors. She will start graduate school Suzanne Bart graduated from the to pursue a PhD in chemistry University of Delaware with a BS beginning September 2016 at the in chemistry (2001) and earned her University of California, Santa PhD from Cornell University with Barbara. While at Purdue, Staun was an undergraduate Professor Paul J. Chirik (2006). researcher in the Bart Laboratory for over 2 years and Subsequently, she was an Alexander received Purdue’s Department of Chemistry 2015 von Humboldt Postdoctoral Summer Research Award. She also found time to Fellow at the Friedrich-Alexander facilitate student learning as a Supplemental Instruction University Erlangen-Nuremberg under the direction Leader for a math course and as a teaching assistant for a of Professor Karsten Meyer. In 2008 she became an biology lab. assistant professor at Purdue University, then in 2014 she was promoted to associate professor. Her research Mentors interests include organometallic transformations mediated by organoactinide species. Bart recently won John J. Kiernicki earned AB an NSF CAREER award, and has been named a 2012 degrees in chemistry and history Cottrell Scholar and 2014 Organometallics Young from Ripon College in 2011 and Investigator Fellow. is currently working on his PhD in inorganic chemistry at Purdue University.
