Addition of two Ln-H bonds of an YbII hydrido complex supported by bulky amidinate ligand to a Ci-C bond lead to the formation of 1,2-dianionic bibenzyl fragment (see picture). Both YbII and hydrido centers are oxidized under the reaction conditions. The resulting YbII- ·6-arene interaction is surprisingly robust: the arene cannot be replaced from the metal coordination sphere when treated with Lewis bases. Copyright
