Abstract

Organolanthanide chemistry has witnessed spectacular growth in the past 20 years. In this development, alkyl and hydrido complexes bearing two substituted or unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl ligands have occupied a specially important place because of their high activity and unique behavior in various catalytic processes. 1 Although mono (cyclopentadienyl or its derivative)-supported lanthanide (II)-alkyl and lanthanide (III)- ...
