Abstract
Samarium(III) monoalkoxides bearing two, one, or no cyclopentadienyl type s pectator ligands are easily synthesized by monoelectronic oxidation with te rt-butylperoxide of the corresponding samarium(II) precursors. These monoal koxides are single-site initiators for ring-opening polymerization.
