Abstract

A polynuclear samarium imido complex [(L)Sm₄(μ₃- NSiMe₃)₄] (2) featuring a cubane-like cluster has been synthesized from the reaction of an organic azide and a samarium(ii) complex [(L)SmI₂Li₂(THF)(Et₂O)₂] (1). In addition, this divalent samarium starting material (1) reacts with azobenzene to give the first example of a well-defined doubly-fused cubic imido-cluster [(L)Sm₆(μ₃-NPh)₄(μ₄-NPh) ₂I₂(THF)₂] (4) in addition to a major cubic complex [(L)Sm₄(μ₃-NPh)₄] (3).
