Abstract: The reaction between {CeCp*2H}2 with CO2 in thf resulted in a new cerium(III) carbonate species, {Ce(Cp*)2(thf)}2(μ-η2:η1-CO3). Investigations into the mechanism suggest the intermediacy of a bridging oxo-complex, {CeCp*2(thf)x}2(μ-O), which could either be formed from the… read more here.
