title: Splitting of dihydrogen by five-membered zirconacycloallenoids: a novel pathway to conjugated diene zirconocene complexes.
abstract: The five-membered zirconacycloallenoids 2 react rapidly with dihydrogen under mild conditions to yield the corresponding (s-cis-conjugated diene)zirconocenes 3. The reaction involves splitting of the H(2) molecule between the metal center and a ligand carbon atom.
