A series of aminopyridinato-stabilized (amido)lanthanide complexes has been synthesized and characterized. The bulky aminopyridines (2,6-diisopropylphenyl)[6-(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl)pyridin-2-yl]amine (1a) and [6-(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl)pyridin-2-yl](2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)amine (1b) were introduced by amine elimination reaction with [Ln[N(SiHMe2)(2)}(3)(thf)(2)] (Ln = Y, La, thf = tetrahydrofuran, Me = methyl) to obtain the corresponding mono(aminopyridinato) complexes. Single-crystal X-ray analyses were carried out for the yttrium. derivatives. The complexes are not able to undergo coordinative chain transfer polymerization with ethylene in the presence of alkylaluminium. compounds as the corresponding dialkyl complexes do. Investigations of the reactions of the lanthanide aminopyridinato complexes with triethylaluminium or diisobutylaluminium hydride reveal a fast transfer of the aminopyridinato ligand to the aluminium atom. The products of this transfer reaction are aminopyridinato-stabilized dialkylaluminium compounds. One example of these aluminium complexes was characterized by X-ray crystal structure analysis.
