Scandium, yttrium, the lanthanides†
Abstract
Evans reports the synthesis of the highly congested [Cp*3Ln] (Ln = Gd, Y), in the most striking of a number of important contributions from his laboratories. Other publications feature the first homoleptic CeIV amide and important clarification of the scandium aqua ion, whilst there is significant interest in 45Sc, 89Y and 139La NMR.
