Terminal, nondirectional ionic “multiple” bond interactions between group 15 elements and
rare-earth metals (Ln) have remained a challenging target until present. Although reports on …

The structure of and bonding in two base-free terminal actinide imido metallocenes,[η5-1, 2,
4-(Me3C) 3C5H2] 2An═ N (p-tolyl)(An= U (1), Th (1′)) are compared and connected to …

Complexes featuring lanthanide–ligand multiple bonds are rare and highly reactive. They
are important synthetic targets to understand 4f/5d-bonding in comparison to d-block and …

Terminal rare-earth-metal imide complexes TptBu, MeLn (NC6H3iPr2-2, 6)(dmap) of the mid-
late rare-earth elements dysprosium and holmium were synthesized via double methane …

Group 3-and 4f-element organometallic chemistry and reactivity are decisively driven by the
rare-earth-metal/lanthanide (Ln) ion size and associated electronegativity/ionicity/Lewis …

The pincer rare-earth dialkyl complexes [κ 3-L RE (CH2SiMe3) 2 (RE= Lu (1a), Yb (1b), Er
(1c), Y (1d), Dy (1e))] with the indol-2-yl-based NCN pincer ligand were synthesized by the …

Ligands play a key role in controlling activity of organometallic complexes so that
development of new ligands to overcome the challenge is the main topic of modern …

Monomeric, divalent ytterbium primary amides TptBu, MeYb (NHR)(thf) x (R= C6H3iPr2-2,
6= AriPr= Dipp, C6H3 (CF3) 2-3, 5= ArCF3, SiPh3) supported by the bulky hydrotris (3-tBu-5 …

Defined metalmethyl compounds were first reported in the middle of the 19th century and the
interest in metal alkyls is still growing. So far 26 out of 60 non-radioactive metals have been …
