Summary:Studies on the reactions of 3-(tert-butyliminomethine)indole or 3-(tert-butylaminomethylene)indole with rare-earth metal amides [(Me(3)Si)(2)N](3)RE(III)(μ-Cl)Li(THF)(3) (RE = Y, Yb) led to the discovery of different reactivity patterns with isolation of novel rare-earth metal complexes having a unique indolyl-1,2-dianion in a novel η(1):(μ(2)-η(1):η(1)) bonding mode through C-H activation.
