Protactinium and the intersection of actinide and transition metal chemistry

The role of the 5f and 6d orbitals in the chemical bonding of the actinide elements remains debated. Here, the authors synthesize and study a tetranuclear protactinium peroxo cluster and demonstrate that protactinium represents an intersection of actinide (5f) and transition metal (6d) chemistries.
