TLDR
In this article, the reaction of SmI2 with O2 in dry condition was shown to yield an ionic complex, [SmI2(THF)5] from THF, rather than the simple coordination compound SmI3(thF)3.
Abstract
SmI3 can be prepared by the reaction of SmI2 with O2 in dry condition. It crystallizes as an ionic complex, [SmI2(THF)5][SmI4(THF)2], from THF, rather than the simple coordination compound SmI3(THF)3.

Lanthanide(III) and actinide(III) complexes [M(BH4)2 (THF)5][BPh4] and [M(BH4)2(18-crown-6)][BPh4] (M = Nd, Ce, U): synthesis, crystal structure, and density functional theory investigation of the covalent contribution to metal-borohydride bonding.

TL;DR: The Mulliken population analysis and the natural bond orbital analysis indicate that the BH4 -->M(III) donation is greater for M = U than for M + Ce, as well as the overlap population of the M-Hb bond, thus showing a better interaction between the uranium 5f orbitals and the Hb atoms.
