The earth-metal olefin complex [Ga<sup>I</sup> (COD)<sub>2</sub> ]<sup>+</sup> [Al(OR<sup>F</sup> )<sub>4</sub> ]<sup>-</sup> (COD=1,5-cyclooctadiene; R<sup>F</sup> =C(CF<sub>3</sub> )<sub>3</sub> ) constitutes the first homoleptic olefin complex of any main-group metal accessible as a bulk compound. It is straight forward to prepare in good yield and constitutes an olefin complex of a main-group metal that-similar to many transition-metals-may adopt the +1 and +3 oxidation states opening potent ...[more]
