Abstract
The syntheses of the monomeric diorganocadmium complex [Cd(PhC=C)(2)(t meda)] 1, the first structurally characterised Cd-acetylide, and of th e ion-separated [Cd(C12H8N)(4)](2)-.2Li(thf)(4)(+) 2, containing a met allo-organic Cd dianion, from the nucleophilic substitution reactions of Cd(NSiMe(3))(2) with PhC=CLi (1:1 or 1:2 equiv.) and with C12H18NLi (1:1-4 equiv.) respectively, exemplify a new, halide-free and general route to metallo-organic complexes.
