Reaction of [(((Ad)ArO)(3)tacn)U(III)] (1) or [((Me(3)Si)(2)N)(3)U(III)] (3) with tetramethylimidazol-2-ylidene (Me(4)IMC:) yields novel N-heterocyclic carbene complexes [((Ad ArO)(3)tacn)U(III)(Me(4)IMC:)] (2) and [((Me(3)Si)(2)N)(3)U(III)(Me(4)IMC:)] (4). Uranium complexes 2 and 4 represent the first examples of compounds with an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand coordinated to a low-valent uranium center. The paramagnetic complexes 1, 2, and 4 were characterized by (1)H NMR, UV-vis-NIR, and EPR spectroscopy as well as SQUID magnetization measurements and X-ray diffraction analyses. DFT studies indicate a significant degree of pi-bonding in the U(III)-carbene entity.
