Rare earth and actinide bulky silylamide chemistry

Rare earth (RE) and actinide (An) bis(trimethylsilyl)amide ({N(SiMe 3 ) 2 } − , N′′) chemistry has been investigated for over fifty years, and is very well-established. The hard N-donor atom and bulky trimethylsilyl groups of N′′ provide considerable thermodynamic and kinetic sta...
