title: A naphthyl-substituted pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligand and its Sm(II) bent-metallocene complexes with solvent-induced structure change.
abstract: A naphthyl-substituted pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligand (Cp(Naph) = η(5)-C(5)Me(4)CH(2)C(10)H(7)) and its Sm(II) complexes [Sm(Cp(Naph))(2)(THF)(x)] (1: x = 2, 2: x = 0) have been prepared and characterised. The solvent-induced reversible conversion between the di-THF solvated purple complex 1 and the un-solvated dark green complex 2 is presented.
