•Solid state structures of complexes with Lpy do not provide an ideal model for solution behaviour
•Unusual donor sets change the nature of the anisotropy
•In bimetallic systems, solution isomerism is more complicated and NMR spectra are more difficult to interpret
•Emission spectroscopy can be used to study dynamic solution behaviour
•Complementary technique with NMR spectroscopy

Summary
•Several macrocyclic uranium(IV) complexes have been synthesised
•These show long-lived visible emission (ILCT and f-f)
•Intra f-f transitions exhibit charge transfer character
•Emission spectroscopy can be used as a probe for actinide speciation
•1H NMR spectra of symmetric systems are structurally informative
•1H NMR spectra of DO3A systems appear similar to the Ln3+ series
