Abstract

The migration of Me₃Si groups (“Wanderlust”) in rare-earth triple-decker sandwich complexes of the type Ln₂(COT′′)₃ (COT′′ = bis(trimethylsilyl)cyclooctatetraenyl) has been elucidated by a combined experimental and computational study. For the first time, two isomers of a Ln₂(COT′′)₃ triple-decker have been isolated and characterized in the case of Y₂(COT′′)₃.
