title: Chameleon behavior of a newly synthesized scandium nitrilimine derivative.
abstract: The synthesis, structural characterization, and reactivity of the first example of a scandium-substituted nitrilimine are presented. This unique complex exhibits high thermal stability but shows a rich reactivity toward a variety of unsaturated substrates, including aldehyde, ketone, nitrile, and allene derivatives. The versatility of the complex was further highlighted by density functional theory mechanistic studies.
