Abstract
Thermal treatment of Cp*2YMe(thf) (Cp* = C5Me5), obtained from Cp*2Y(AlMe4) via donor-induced AlMe3 cleavage, in THF resulted in the concomitant formation of vinyl oxide Cp*2Y(OC2H3)(thf) and 2-ethylene-tetrahydrofuranyl complex Cp*2Y(2-C2H4-OC4H7) via the release of methane. In stark contrast, dissolving Cp*2La(AlMe4) in THF/n-hexane led to the quantitative formation of AlMe3-stabilized 2-tetrahydrofuranyl complex Cp*2La(2-AlMe3-OC4H7), with methane elimination.
