Abstract

The complex [(η⁷-C₇H₇)Zr{N(SiMe₃)₂}(thf)] (2) loses THF upon sublimation to afford a chain polymer consisting of [(η⁷-C₇H₇)Zr{N(SiMe₃)₂}] (3) units; they are connected by cycloheptatrienyl ligands in an unprecedented antifacial η⁷:η²-bridging mode. The basicity of the bis(trimethylsilyl)amido ligand can also be used to introduce other ligands by acid–base reactions.
