title: Micro-eta3:eta4-Lithiocene and eta3:eta3-zincocene incorporating 1,2-diaza-3,5-diborolyl, a cyclopentadienyl analog.
abstract: A heterocyclic cyclopentadienyl analog containing only one carbon atom in the ring was prepared and a polymeric lithiocene and a monomeric zincocene containing this novel ligand have been isolated and crystallographically characterized.
