Abstract

Hetero- and homoleptic dinuclear zinc(I) complexes containing the macrocycle Me₄TACD (N,N′,N′′,N′′′-1,4,7,10-tetramethylcyclododecane) were prepared; the heteroleptic complex [(Me₄TACD)Zn–ZnCp*]⁺ reacted with activated hydrocarbons R–H (R = CH₂CN, C [triple bond, length as m-dash] CPh) to give the corresponding hydrocarbyl zinc(II) complexes [(Me₄TACD)ZnR]⁺.
