title: Cyclopentadienyl benzamidinato chromium complexes as models for alkyl halide activation by chromium reagents.
abstract: Cyclopentadienyl complexes of Cr(II) and Cr(III) are stabilized by bis(trimethylsilyl)benzamidinato ligands, allowing the resulting well-defined compounds to serve as models for alkyl halide activation by mid-valent Cr-based reagents.
