Abstract

The reaction of Ln[N(SiMe₃)₂]₃· [LiCl(THF)₃]_x (Ln = Yb and Er) with N-confused tetraphenylporphyrin (H₂NCTPP) followed by Na(L_OMe) (L_OMe = (η⁵-C₅H₅)Co[P(=O)(OMe) ₂]) gives (NCTPP)Ln(L_OMe), whose X-ray structures exhibit an η² agostic interaction between the metal centre and the inner C-H bond of the NCTPP ligand.
