). Scandium complexes were isolated as THF-free compounds with a pseudo five-coordinate environment, while yttrium and lutetium complexes were isolated with an octahedral geometry due to the coordination of a THF molecule. The fluxionality of complexes

. The hydroamination reactions showed a zero-order rate dependence on substrate concentration and first-order rate dependence on catalyst concentration.
New amide heteroscorpionate rare-earth complexes were developed and used as efficient catalysts for the intramolecular hydroamination of aminoalkenes. |
