1.1 Background A prolific coupling of polymer science with organometallic chemistry has
recently yielded phenomenal scientific and commercial successes in the production of …

The past decade has witnessed an enormous growth in the chemistry of σ-bonded rare-
earth metal (Ln) alkyls, particularly due to their relevance for Ziegler-type anionic …

Transition metal complexes bearing linked cyclopentadienyl amido ligands, regularly
referred to as constrained geometry complexes (CGCs), have found wide interest both in …

The chemistry of the hydride complexes of the rare-earth metals has been dominated by
complexes with metallocene and half-sandwich ligand frameworks. In contrast to hydride …

Three rare‐earth aryloxide ion pairs {[L1REOAr]+/[B (C6F5) 4]−; L1= CH3C (2, 6‐
iPr2C6H3N) CHC (CH3)(NCH2CH2PPh2); RE= Sc, Y, Lu; Ar= 2, 6‐tBu2C6H3} were …

The acid‐base reactions between the rare‐earth metal (Ln) tris (ortho‐N, N‐
dimethylaminobenzyl) complexes [Ln (CH2C6H4NMe2‐o) 3] with one equivalent of the …

A series of rare‐earth‐metal–hydrocarbyl complexes bearing N‐type functionalized
cyclopentadienyl (Cp) and fluorenyl (Flu) ligands were facilely synthesized. Treatment of [Y …

A series of new neutral allyl Group 3 metal complexes bearing ansa‐bridged fluorenyl/
cyclopentadienyl ligands [{Flu‐EMe2‐(3‐R‐Cp)} Ln (η3‐C3H5)(THF)](E= C, R= H, Ln= Y (2) …

A series of neutral rare earth metal amides with different metal− nitrogen bonds were
synthesized and characterized. The selective catalytic activity and reactivity of the …

Abstract The imidazolin‐2‐imino‐functionalized tetramethylcyclopentadiene, 3‐H, has been
prepared by the reaction of two equivalents of 1, 3‐diisopropyl‐4, 5‐dimethylimidazolin‐2 …
