Abstract / Description of output
The first structurally authenticated yttrium-alkyl-alkylidene is reported; structural, spectroscopic, and theoretical analyses show that whilst the yttrium-alkylidene bond is short, it possesses a bond order less than one and is comparable to the Y-C-alkyl single bond within the same molecule.
