hafnium/pentas

The mol-ecule of the title organometallic hafnium(IV) com-pound, [Hf(CH3)3(C13H21)] or [HfMe3(η(5)-C5H3-1,3- (t) Bu2)], adopts the classical three-legged piano-stool geometry for mono-cyclo-penta-dienylhafnium(IV) derivatives with the three methyl groups bonded to the Hf(IV) atom at the legs. The C

The title compound, [Hf(C5H5)2(C8H16)], proves a structural motif of hafna-cyclo-pentane besides the coordination of two cyclo-penta-dienyl ligands in an η(5)-fashion. The hafna-cyclo-pentane ring has a twist conformation and is substituted by two ethyl groups in the β,β'-positions, which are trans

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Hf(C(5)H(5))(3)], three cyclo-penta-dienyl ligands surround the Hf(III) atom in a trigonal-planar geometry. The mol-ecule lies on a sixfold inversion axis.

The title compound, [HfW(C(5)H(5))(2)(C(7)H(5)O)Cl(CO)(5)] or [W(CO)(5)(C(7)H(5)O){Hf(C(5)H(5))(2)Cl}], contains two metal centres, with a (tungstenpenta-carbon-yl)oxy-phenyl-carbene unit coordinated to a hafnocene chloride. The Hf-O-C angle is nearly linear, and the C=O distance is slightly shorter

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Hf(C10H15)2(C4H9)2], reveals two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The diffraction experiment was performed with a racemically twinned crystal showing a 0.529 (5):0.471 (5) component ratio. Each Hf(IV) atom is coordinated by two
