During the past 20 years, tremendous progress has been made in the area of organolanthanide catalysis. It has been found that lanthanocene complexes are highly active and selective catalysts for many unsaturated C–C and C–N bond transformations such as isomerization, hydrogenation, hydroboration, hydrosilylation, hydroamination, hydrophosphination, oligomerization/polymerization and so on. 1–5 However, it is noteworthy that ...
