The natural phosphorus cycle has been disrupted by human activity, which necessitates the development of new methods for the sustainable production of phosphorus compounds, and efficient recovery and recycling schemes.

The global electrophilicity index (GEI) is a base-free and facile method for assessing Lewis acidity that can guide synthetic efforts.

New tris-amidinate actinide (Th, U) complexes containing a rare O-bound terminal phosphaethynolate (OCP⁻) ligand were synthesized and fully characterized.
