Thorium–phosphorus triamidoamine complexes containing Th–P single- and multiple-bond interactions

Nature Communications, 2016
Despite the burgeoning field of uranium-ligand multiple bonds, analogous complexes involving other actinides remain scarce. For thorium, under ambient conditions only a few multiple bonds to carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, selenium and tellurium are ...

Thorium: An energy source for the world of tomorrow

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
To meet the tremendous world energy needs, systematic R&D has to be pursued to replace fossil fuels. Nuclear energy, which produces no green house gases and no air pollution, should be a leading candidate. How nuclear energy, based on thorium rather than
