Abstract:Dedicated to Professor Rinaldo Poli on the occasion of his 65th birthday.
Slow diffusion of Me3 SiI into an n-hexane solution of lanthanide half-sandwich complexes [Cp'Ln(AlMe 4 ) 2 ] (Ln=Ce, Pr; Cp'=C 5 H 4 SiMe 3 ) gives access to the hexadecalanthanide ringcluster hybrids [Cp' 4 Ln 4 I 8 ] 4 , along with the cyclopentadienylbridged {Ce 8 } cluster [Cp' 4 Ce 4 I 7 (μ 2 -Cp)] 2 . On the contrary, direct addition of the halogenating reagent to complex [Cp'Ce-(AlMe 4 ) 2 ] in solution affords the spherical dode… Show more
We report the synthesis and characterization of ionic compounds [(thf)4YbI]2[Ge9(Hyp)3]2 (1) and [(thf)5LnI]4[Ge9(Hyp)3]4 (Ln = Eu (2), Sm (3)), (Hyp = Si(SiMe3)3). All compounds were examined by UV-Vis spectroscopy and...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
