Reduction of (C5H5)2MCl2 (M=Ti, Zr) and TiCl4 with one equiv. of (C5Me5)2Yb(THF)2 gave rise to the formation of 2 and TiCl3(THF)3, respectively, together with (C5Me5)2YbCl(THF).The molecular structure of (C5Me5)2YbCl(THF) has been determined by the X-ray analysis.The reaction of (C5Me5)2Yb(THF)2 with Me3SiCl yielded a mixture composed of n and C5Me5(CH2)4OSiMe3.
