The binuclear samarium and ytterbium complexes with mixed valence of Ln(II, IQ) (Me5C5)2Sm( i-Cp)Sm(C5Me5)2 [37] and (Me5C5)2Yb(ji-F)Yb(C5Me5)2 [46], are close to the being considered class of compounds in their nature. The complex with cyclopentadienyl bridge can be isolated from the mixture containing cyclopentadiene and... 

As anticipated from the complexation experiments, reaction of 4.42 with cyclopentadiene in the presence of copper(II)nitrate or ytterbium triflate was extremely slow and comparable to the rate of the reaction in the absence of Lewis-acid catalyst. Apparently, Lewis-acid catalysis of Diels-Alder reactions of p-amino ketone dienophiles is not practicable. 

Zeijden [112] used chiral M-functionalized cyclopentadiene ligands to prepare a series of transition metal complexes. The zirconium derivative (82 in Scheme 46), as a moderate Lewis acid, catalyzed the Diels-Alder reaction between methacroleine and cyclopentadiene, with 72% de but no measurable enantiomeric excess. Nakagawa [113] reported l,T-(2,2 -bis-acylamino)binaphthalene (83 in Scheme 46) to be effective in the ytterbium-catalyzed asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction between cyclopentadiene and crotonyl-l,3-oxazolidin-2-one. The adduct was obtained with high yield and enantioselectivity (97% yield, endo/exo = 91/9, > 98% ee for the endo adduct). The addition of diisopropylethylamine was necessary to afford high enantioselectivities, since without this additive, the product was essentially... 

In the presence of a catalytic amount of chiral lanthanide triflate 63, the reaction of 3-acyl-l,3-oxazolidin-2-ones with cyclopentadiene produces Diels-Alder adducts in high yields and high ee. The chiral lanthanide triflate 63 can be prepared from ytterbium triflate, (R)-( I )-binaphthol, and a tertiary amine. Both enantiomers of the cycloaddition product can be prepared via this chiral lanthanide (III) complex-catalyzed reaction using the same chiral source [(R)-(+)-binaphthol] and an appropriately selected achiral ligand. This achiral ligand serves as an additive to stabilize the catalyst in the sense of preventing the catalyst from aging. Asymmetric catalytic aza Diels-Alder reactions can also be carried out successfully under these conditions (Scheme 5-21).19... 

The compounds Ln(C5H5)2Cl also have been made only with the lanthanides above samarium (772). These compounds are stable in the absence of air and moisture, sublime near 200 °C, are insoluble in non-polar solvents, and exhibit room temperature magnetic moments near the free ion values (772, 113). The chloride ion may be replaced by a variety of anions including methoxide, phenoxide, amide and carboxylate. Some of these derivatives are considerably more air-stable than the chloride — the phenoxide is reported to be stable for days in dry air. Despite their apparent stability, little is known about the physical properties of these materials. The methyl-substituted cyclopentadiene complexes are much more soluble in non-polar solvents than the unsubstituted species. Ebulliometric measurements on the bis(methylcyclopentadienyl)lanthanide(III) chlorides indicated the complexes are dimeric in non-coordinating solvents (772). A structmre analysis of the ytterbium member of this series has been completed (714). The crystal and molecular parameters of this and related complexes are compared in Table 5. 

With Binaphthol/M(OTf)3 Complexes (M = Yb, Sc) A chiral ytterbium triflate, derived from Yb(OTf)3, (R)-binaphthol, and a tertiary amine, has been applied to the enantioselective Diels-Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene with crotonoy 1 oxazolidinones. Among various tertiary amines, c/s-1,2,6-trimethyl piperidine was found to be highly effective [44] (Eq. 8 A.23). The unique structure of such chiral Yb catalysts is characterized by hydrogen bonding between the phenolic hydrogens of (R)-binaphthol and the nitrogens of tertiary amines. 

Kobayashi reported an asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction catalyzed by a chiral lanthanide(III) complex 24, prepared from ytterbium or scandium triflate [ Yb(OTf)3 or Sc(OTf)3], (Zf)-BINOL and tertiary amine (ex. 1,2,6-trimethylpiperidine) [30], A highly enantioselective and endose-lective Diels-Alder reaction of 3-(2-butenoyl)-l,3-oxazolidin-2-one (23) with cyclopentadiene (Scheme 9.13) takes place in the presence of 24. When chiral Sc catalyst 24a was used, asymmetric amplification was observed with regard to the enantiopurity of (/ )-BINOL and that of the endoadduct [31 ]. On the other hand, in the case of chiral Yb catalyst 24b, NLE was affected by additives, that is, when 3-acetyl-l,3-oxazolidin-2-one was added, almost no deviation was observed from linearity, whereas a negative NLE was observed with the addition of 3-pheny-lacetylacetone. 

Roesky introduced bis(iminophosphorano)methanides to rare earth chemistry with a comprehensive study of trivalent rare earth bis(imino-phosphorano)methanide dichlorides by the synthesis of samarium (51), dysprosium (52), erbium (53), ytterbium (54), lutetium (55), and yttrium (56) derivatives.37 Complexes 51-56 were prepared from the corresponding anhydrous rare earth trichlorides and 7 in THF and 51 and 56 were further derivatised with two equivalents of potassium diphenylamide to produce 57 and 58, respectively.37 Additionally, treatment of 51, 53, and 56 with two equivalents of sodium cyclopentadienyl resulted in the formation of the bis(cyclopentadienly) derivatives 59-61.38 In 51-61 a metal-methanide bond was observed in the solid state, and for 56 this was shown to persist in solution by 13C NMR spectroscopy (8Ch 17.6 ppm, JYc = 3.6 2/py = 89.1 Hz). However, for 61 the NMR data suggested the yttrium-carbon bond was lost in solution. DFT calculations supported the presence of an yttrium-methanide contact in 56 with a calculated shared electron number (SEN) of 0.40 for the yttrium-carbon bond in a monomeric gas phase model of 56 for comparison, the yttrium-nitrogen bond SEN was calculated to be 0.41. 

Tricyclopentadienyl ytterbium reacts with liquid ammonia with formation of a stable 1 1 complex, which can be sublimed, but which decomposes above 200°C with formation of dicyclopentadienyl ytterbium amide and cyclopentadiene (E.O. Fischer and H. Fischer, 1966). The corresponding 1 1 adducts of NH3 could also be isolated for (C5Hj)3Pr and (C5H5)3Sm (Birmingham and Wilkinson, 1956), as well... 

Naphthalene complexes CioH8Ln(THE) (Ln - Eu, Yb x - 2,3), obtained by reaction of Lnl2 with alkali metals naphthalenides, like the products of ytterbium and alkynes cocondensation, readily react with cyclopentadiene at room temperature to give Cp2Ln in a high yield [50]. 

When ytterbium dissolved in liquid ammonia interacts with cyclopentadiene along with Cp2Yb the complex of Yb(III) containing NH3 is formed [11, 124]. A base-free product is obtained by the sublimation of the complex in vacuum ... 

Like the overwhelming majority of cyclopentadienyl REM derivatives, the ionic complexes are very quickly destroyed on air. Their hydrolysis is accompanied by the abstraction of cyclopentadiene [276]. Reduction of [(Me5C5)2YbCl2]K by sodium amalgam in DME or acetonitrile medium leads to neutral complexes of divalent ytterbium (Me5C5)2Yb(B) (B = DME, MeCN) [234].
