Аннотация:A series of mono-, bis and tris(cyclopentadienyl) complexes of La, Nd and Tb with borohydride ligands were synthesized and structurally characterized. Various structural types of complex anions and cations containing cyclopentadienyl and borohydride ligands in the coordination sphere of Ln3+ have been studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Five different structural types of Cp-lanthanide borohydrides were found for neodymium: {CpNd(BH4)2} in [(CpNd(BH4)2(THF)2] (2Nd); {Cp2Nd(BH4)2}- in [Cp2Nd(BH4)2][Na(18-crown-6)(THF)2] (3Nd); {Cp2Nd(BH4)} in [Cp2Nd(BH4)(THF)] (4Nd); {CpNd(18-crown-6)(BH4)}+ in [Cp2Nd(BH4)2]2[CpNd(18-crown-6)(BH4)][Na(18-crown-6)(THF)2] (6Nd); {Cp3Nd(BH4)}- in [Cp3Nd(BH4)][Na(18-crown-6)(THF)2] (8Nd). Complex anions {Cp2Nd(BH4)2}- and {Cp3Nd(BH4)}- are able to replace each other in the crystal lattice. Mono- and bis(cyclopentadienyl)borohydride complexes of neodymium effectively initiate ε-caprolactone polymerization.
