Lithium-lanthanide-2-naphthoxide complexes are found to have solvent dependent solution structures and related monomeric/dimeric solid state structures. The incorporation of tetramethylguanidium cations into lanthanide 2-naphthoxide complexes stabilizes a complex structure both in solution and the solid state through bridging hydrogen bonds between the 2-naphthoxide ligands.

Systematic ligand variation in a structurally conserved framework of pentavalent uranium complexes of the formulas U(V)X2[N(SiMe3)2]3 (X = F, Cl, Br, N3, NCS, 2-naphthoxide) and U(V)OX[N(SiMe3)2]3(-) (X = -CCPh, -CN) allowed an investigation into the role of the inverse trans influence in pentavalent uranium complexes. The -CCPh and -CN derivatives were only stable in the presence of the trans-U═O multiple bond, implicating the inverse trans influence in stabilizing these complexes. Spectroscopic, structural, and density functional theory calculated electronic structural data are explored.

The fluorescent excited state of the 2-naphthoxide ion (1) is quenched by aliphatic and aromatic halides according to an electron-transfer mechanism, with generation of the corresponding alkyl and aryl radicals by a concerted or consecutive C-X bond fragmentation reaction. Whereas bromo- and iodobenzene follow a concerted ET mechanism (C-X, BDE control), 1-bromonaphthalene exhibits a stepwise process (pi LUMO control). The photoinduced reaction of anion 1 with 1-iodoadamantane (2) in DMSO affords substitution products on C3, C6, and C8, 1-adamantanol, 1-adamantyl 2-naphthyl ether, and adamantane (3.
