Lanthanide molecular oxohydroxides: Synthesis and characterisation of [Y4(μ4-O)(μ-OEt)2(μ,η2-AAA)2(η2-AAA)3]2(μ3-OH)4(μ3-OEt)2 (HAAA = allylacetatoac…

International audience; The reaction between Y5O(OPri)13 and allylacetatoacetate or 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl acetatoacetate in 1:5 stoichiometry afforded octanuclear oxohydroxo species. Structural characterization was achieved for the allylacetatoacetate derivative homo and copolymerisation reactions with styrene were evaluated for doping of polystyrene. Hydoxo species, Y4(OH)2(AAA)10, where also obtained by reacting Y[N(SiMe3)]3 and HAAA.
