title: Reactions of zirconium amide amidinates with dioxygen. Observation of an unusual peroxo intermediate in the formation of oxo compounds.
abstract: Reaction of d(0) Zr(NMe2)2[MeC(N(i)Pr)2]2 (1) with O2 at -30 °C gives three Zr containing products: a peroxo trimer {(μ-η(2):η(2)-O2)Zr[MeC(N(i)Pr)2]2}3 (2), an oxo dimer {(μ-O)Zr[MeC(N(i)Pr)2]2}2 (3), and an oxo polymer {(μ-O)Zr[MeC(N(i)Pr)2]2}n (4). is a rarely observed peroxo complex from the reaction of a d(0) complex with O2.
