Book excerpt: The redox chemistry of rare earth elements has broad applications in synthetic chemistry, material chemistry, and separations. However, in terms of the +3/+4 redox chemistry of molecular lanthanide compounds, only the CeIII/IV redox properties have been extensively studied because the other molecular lanthanide (IV) complexes have not yet been isolated and characterized. In this dissertation, progress toward the isolation of lanthanide (IV) guanidinate complexes is demonstrated. The stabilization of cerium (IV) oxidation state by guanidinate ligand framework is investigated. Investigations of oxidation reactions of other lanthanide (III) guanidinate complexes are reported.
