Enhanced solubility of the dizirconium nonaisopropoxide (dzni) complexes [(dzni)Ln(C5H5)] and [{(dzni)Ln}2(C8H8)] (shown here for Ln=Sm; R=iPr), compared with their cyclopentadienyl analogues, was revealed by examining the reactions of [{(dzni)LnI}2] with NaC5H5 and K2C8H8 to probe the compatibility of the dzni ligand with organometallic reagents.
