Abstract

The reaction of the bulky allyl anion [1,3-C3H3(SiMe3)2]- with SmI2(THF)2 gives the allyl-bridged dimer [Sm(C3H3(SiMe3)2)3{µ-K(THF)2}]2, the first structurally authenticated Sm(II) allyl complex. The compound is a highly effective single-component catalyst for the polymerization of methyl methacrylate and e-caprolactone.
