After more than 50 years, the synthesis and electronic structure of the first and only reported U-0 complex [U(bipy)(4)] (1) has been reinvestigated. Additionally, its one-electron reduced product [Na(THF)(6)][U(bipy)(4)] (2) has been newly discovered. High resolution crystallographic analyses combined with magnetic and computational data show that 1 and its derivative 2 are best described as highly reduced species containing mid-to-high-valent uranium ligated by redox non-innocent ligands.
