Abstract N-Methylaminoalkoxides of zirconium of the type, Zr(OPri)4-n(O.CHR′.CH2.NR″R′)n, where R′ = R′ = H, R′ = Me; R′ = H, R′ = R′ = Me; R′ = R′ = R′ = Me; and n = 1–4, have been synthesized by the reactions of zirconium isopropoxide with aminoalcohols. These are characterized by elemental analyses and IR spectra. Insertion reactions of zirconium aminoalkoxides have been studied for the first time and have been shown to yield interesting derivatives with Zr-N bonds.
