Abstract
B(C6F5)(3) reacts with the (eta(2)-acetaldehyde)zirconocene dimer (4) by hydride transfer from the methyl group of a CH3CHO ligand to boron. One of the metallaoxirane moieties of the dizirconium complex is then opened to give the salt [(eta(2)-CH3CHO)ZrCp(2) .(H2C=CHO)ZrCp(2)](+) [HB(C6F5)(3)](-)(6) that was isolated with an 80% yield.
