The known chemistry of the actinide series is dominated by that of uranium and thorium, but recent experimental and computational studies of the highly radioactive elements beyond uranium are bringing surprises and new insight in equal measure. Selected highlights from these developments are explored in this Minireview, with emphasis on contributions from computational quantum chemistry. For more details, see the Minireview by N. Kaltsoyannis on page 2815 ff.
