Reaction of Cp2ZrCl2 with Inorganic Amides Reaction of Cp2ZrCl2 with Inorganic Amides Michael T. Gamer, Marcus Rastätter, and Peter W. Roesky* Berlin, Institut für Chemie der Freien Universität Received February 22th, 2002. Dedicated to Professor Dieter Fenske on the Occasion of his 60th Birthday Abstract. The reactions of [η5-Cp2ZrCl2] (Cp � η5-C5H5) with [K(THF)n][N(PPh2)2] (n � 1.25�1.5) and K[CH(PPh2NSiMe3)2] are reported. The first reaction led to the monoamido complex [η5-Cp2Zr(Cl)N
