| Abstract: | The silica‐supported azazirconacyclopropane ?SiOZr(HNMe2)(η2‐NMeCH2)(NMe2) ( 1 ) leads exclusively under hydrogenolysis conditions (H2, 150 °C) to the single‐site monopodal monohydride silica‐supported zirconium species ?SiOZr(HNMe2)(NMe2)2H ( 2 ). Reactivity studies by contacting compound 2 with ethylene, hydrogen/ethylene, propene, or hydrogen/propene, at a temperature of 200 °C revealed alkene hydrogenation. |
| Keywords: | azazirconacyclopropanes hydrogenation monohydrides organometallic chemistry surface chemistry |
