S. Gentil et al., Stereoselective access to new half-sandwich complexes containing an isodicyclopentadienyl ligand, ORGANOMETAL, 19(20), 2000, pp. 4169-4172
The stereoselective synthesis, characterization, and X-ray crystal structur
e of a new example of a half-sandwich zirconium complex containing a nonpla
nar cyclopentadienyl ligand are reported. Preliminary ethylene polymerizati
on results reveal catalyst activity that is comparable with related complex
es.
