With the intent of generating metallocavitands isostructural to species [(CpZr)3(μ3-O)(μ2-OH)3(κO,O,μ2-O2C(R))3]+, the reaction of Cp*2ZrCl2 and Cp*ZrCl3 with phenylcarboxylic acids was carried out
We report the synthesis and use of an easy-to-prepare, bulky, and robust aryloxide ligand starting from inexpensive precursor materials. Based on this aryloxide ligand, two reactive, coordinatively un
