Kinetically-Stable Lanthanide Metal Alkyls and Bridging Methyls

  • Conference paper
Organometallics of the f-Elements

Part of the book series: NATO Advanced Study Institutes Series ((ASIC,volume 44))

Summary

This paper presents results on three topics concerning synthetic, structural, and chemical studies relating to three new classes of lanthanide metal (M) alkyl: (i) methyl-bridged complexes involving the moiety \({\text{M}}_{\backslash Me/}^{/Me\backslash }AlM{e_2}\) (ii) methyl-bridged complexes involving the unit \({\text{M}}_{\backslash Me/}^{/Me\backslash }M\) and (iii) neutral, [MR3(thf)2], and anionic, [MR4]− or [M(CI)R’3]−, silylmethyl [R = Me3SiCH2, R’ = (Me3Si)2CH] complexes. Topic (iii) is not described herein (but was included in the lecture) (the reader is referred to the paper by J. L. Atwood, W. E. Hunter, R. D. Rogers, J. Holton, J. McMeeking, R. Pearce, and M. F. Lappert, J. C. S. Chem. Comm., 1978, 140). (Also covered in the lecture were results on alkyls of the early transition elements.)

The lecture in Sogesta was by M.F. Lappert
