Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and Structural Characterization of closo- and exo-nido-Lanthanacarboranes
TL;DR: Treatment of anhydrous LaCl3 with 1 equiv of Na2[7,8-R2nido-7, 8-R 2C2B9H9] in THF afforded sandwich complexes closo-{(THF)2Na}{(R2C2b9H 9)2La(thf)2} (R = H (1), R = C6H5CH2 (2)) in good yield as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
exo-nido- versus closo-Lanthanacarboranes. Synthesis and Structure of exo-nido-[(C6H5CH2)2C2B10H10]Ln(DME)3, [exo-nido-{(C6H5CH2)2C2B9H9}Ln(THF)3]2 (Ln = Sm, Yb), and closo-exo-[(C6H5CH2)2C2B10H10]4Sm2Na3
TL;DR: In this paper, the steric factors dominate the formation of exo-nido-lanthanacarboranes, and the solid-state structures of 1−3, 6, and 7 have been further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic studies on the reactions of lanthanide trichlorides with Na[1,3-bis(trimethylsilyl) cyclopentadienyl]. Crystal structures of [1,3-(Me3Si)2C5H3]3Ln (LnLa, Nd, Gd, Dy)
TL;DR: The tris ligand complexes of the type [(Me3Si)2C5H3]3Ln (LnLa, Nd, Sm, Gd or Dy) were fully characterized by elemental analyses as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and reactivity of cationic lanthanide metallocene complexes. Hexabromocarborane and tetraphenylborate as counter ions
TL;DR: The reactivity of these cationic complexes is highly dependent upon the coordinating nature of the counter ions as mentioned in this paper, and it is shown that these cations slowly undergo decomposition reaction at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of bis[η5-1,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)cyclopentadienyl] lanthanide and yttrium iodide complexes
TL;DR: In this article, a mixture of NaI and LnCl3 was used to give five monomeric complexes (Me3Si)2C5H3]2LnI(THF) (Ln = La (1), Sm (2), Y (3), Er (4), Lu (5)) in 50-69% yield.
