Organoyttrium chemistry

(Redirected from Organoyttrium compound)

Organoyttrium chemistry is the study of compounds containing carbon-yttrium bonds. These compounds are almost invariably formal Y3+ derivatives, are generally diamagnetic and colorless, a consequence of the closed-shell configuration of the trication.[2] Organoyttrium compounds are mainly of academic interest.

Structure of Y(CH(tms)2)3 (tms = SiMe3).[1]

Organoytrium compounds are often prepared by alkylation of YCl
