The addition of (C5Me5) 2Sm (THF) 2 to C6H5N= NC6H5 in a 1: 1 ratio in toluene forms green (C5Me5) 2Sm (t72-N2Ph2)(THF)(1). The addition of azobenzene to (C5Me5) 2Sm (THF) 2 in a 1: 2 ratio in toluene forms blue [(C5Me5) 2Sm] 2 (N2Ph2)(2). InTHF, 2 slowly transforms into [(C5Me5)(THF) Sm] 2 [u-? j2: tj2-N2Ph2] 2 (3). Complexes 1-3 all have trivalent (C5Me5) ISm moieties coordinated to nitrogen atoms of ligands derived from azobenzene. In 1, the nitrogen atoms are^-coordinated to Sm with an average Sm-N distance of 2.42 (2) A. In 2, one (C5Me5) 2Sm group is attached to each nitrogen atom in a trans orientation with Sm-N distances of 2.40 (1) and 2.41 (1) A. In 3, each (C5Me5) Sm unit interacts with both N2Ph2 units with Sm-N distances of 2.323 (8) and 2.559 (7) A to each. The NN distances are 1.35 (2) A (average) in 1, 1.25 (1) A in 2, and 1.44 (1) A in 3. Addition of azobenzene to (C5H5) 2Yb (THF) in a 1: 2 ratio in THF forms a green solution which deposits crystals of [(C5H5)(THF) Yb] 2 [M-»! 2: n2-N2Ph2] 2 (4) and Cp3Yb (THF). Thestructure of 4 is analogous to that of 3. 4 has Yb-N distances of 2.188 (5), 2.206 (5), 2.487 (5), and 2.572 (5) A and an NN length of 1.470 (6) A. Complex 1 fails to react with CO at 70 psi but 2 reacts to form [(C5Me5) 2Sm] 2 [ju-774-(PhN) OCCO (NPh)](5). In 5, the two trivalent (C5Me5) 2Sm units are bridged by a doubly deprotonated/Vj/V'-diphenyloxamide ligand via Sm-N and Sm-O bonds of 2.49 (1) and 2.30 (1) A, respectively.(C5Me5) 2Sm (THF) 2 reacts with 3, 3'-azotoluene to form 6, an analogue of 2. 6 reacts with CO to form 7, an analogue of 5. Reaction of CO with an equimolar mixture of 2 and 6 gives 5 and 7exclusively with no evidence of the crossover product [(C5Me5) 2Sm] 2 [M-t74"(PhN) OCCO (NC6H4Me-3)]. Similarly [(C5Me5) 2Sm] 2-(PhNNC6H4NMe2-4) reacts with CO to form [(C5Me5) 2Sm] 2 [(PhN) OCCO (NC6H4NMe2-4)] exclusively. Complex 1 crystallizes from hexane/THF at-34 C with one THF molecule of crystallization per two formula units in space group PI with a= 10.732 (4) k, b= 19.548 (9) A, c= 19.892 (10) A, a= 110.14 (4), 0= 104.75 (4), y= 101.21 (3), and Z= 4 for Z) calcd= 1.31 g cm" 3. Least-squares refinement on the basis of 6906 observed reflections led to a final R value of 0.066. Complex 2 crystallizes from tolueneat-34 C in space group P2\jn with a= 10.855 (7) k, b= 20.435 (5) A, c= 21.686 (9) A, 0= 106.68 (4), and Aakd= 1-48 g cm" 3 for Z= 4 dimers. Least-squares refinement on the basis of 4130 observed reflections led to a final R value of 0.033. Complex 3 crystallizes from THF at 28-30 C with two THF molecules of crystallization in space group C2/m with a= 22.409 (8) k, b= 13.178 (5) A, c= 9.978 (4) A, 0= 108.84 (5), and Z) calcd= 1.46 g cm" 3 for Z= 2 (2 dimers per unit cell). Least-squares refinement on the basis of 1278 observed reflections led to a final R value of 0.038.
