Abstract

The mixed ligand complexes [{Gd(OCMe2-i-Pr)2Cp}2], [{Sm(OCMe2-i-Pr)2Cp}2], and [Sm2(OCMe2-i-Pr)3Cp3] were synthesized by reacting [LnCp3] with HOCMe2-i-Pr. X-ray crystallographic studies show that the three complexes each have two bridging alkoxide ligands linking two metal atoms. The coordination geometries at the metals are distorted tetrahedral.

Graphical abstract[LnCp3] reacted with HOCMe2-i-Pr to give the cyclopentadienyl-alkoxide complexes [{Gd(OCMe2-i-Pr)2Cp}2], [{Sm(OCMe2-i-Pr)2Cp}2], and [Sm2(OCMe2-i-Pr)3Cp3]. In each complex, there are two metal atoms linked by two bridging alkoxide ligands and the metal coordination geometries are distorted tetrahedral.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
