This review summarizes the progress in organo-f-element chemistry during the year 2019. Organo-f-element chemistry, including Sc, Y, the lanthanides and the actinides, has been a flourishing research area for many years. The mainly ionic and Lewis acid character of the lanthanide metals provides a vast array of intriguing structural features suppor...
This chapter covers the synthesis, structure and bonding, and reactivity of actinide complexes of buta-, and penta-dienyl ligands. First, the small number of homoleptic, and non-cyclopentadienyl heteroleptic hydrocarbyl actinide complexes are presented in brief. This is followed by an overview of the synthesis and reactivity of heteroleptic hydroca...
This review summarizes the progress in organo-f-element chemistry during the year 2018. A continuing trend for many years, which remained important in 2018, was the synthesis and investigation of reactive trivalent lanthanide mono- and bis(alkyl) or (benzyl) complexes supported by a variety of non-cyclopentadienyl ligands such as amidinates, β-dike...
Heterometallic rare earth transition metal compounds of dithioxalate (dto)2–, [Ni{(dto)LnTp2}2] (Ln= Y (1), Gd (2); Tp = hydrotris(pyrazol-1-yl)borate) were synthesised. The Lewis acidic rare earth ions are bound to the dioxolene and chemical reduction of 1 and 2 with cobaltocene yielded [CoCp2]+[Ni{(dto)LnTp2}2]–• Ln = Y (3), Gd (4). The reduction...
