Abstract

Abstract : The Venus flytrap … … is used to illustrate the importance of a framework built from siloxide ligands and a Cs + ion in capturing abundant CO2 and toxic CS2 under ambient conditions and in promoting their reactions with a bridging nitride in a diuranium(IV) complex. In their Communication onpage 4074 ff., M. Mazzanti et al. show how these processes lead to N−C bond formation and afford cyanate, thiocyanate, and unprecedented dicarbamate products.
