Reduction of [U(Ts(Tol))(Cl)(μ-Cl)U(Ts(Tol))(THF)2] [2, Ts(Tol) = HC(SiMe2NAr')3; Ar' = 4-MeC6H4)] with KC8 in toluene afforded the new arene-bridged diuranium complex [{U(Ts(Tol))}2(μ-η(6):η(6)-C6H5Me)] (3); combined structural, spectroscopic, magnetic, and computational analyses unambiguously confirm that the uranium centres in 3 are in the +5 oxidation state and the toluene is a 10π-tetraanion.
