Samarium chloride and borohydride complexes of the diamide-diamine ligands (2-C5H4N)CH2N(CH2CH2NR)2(R = SiMe3 or mesityl) are described; the borohydride compounds are the first polydentate amide-supported single component lanthanide catalysts for the controlled polymerisation of polar monomers, and also represent the first lanthanide borohydride complex for the polymerisation of methyl methacrylate.

The multigram syntheses of the protio ligands (2-NC(5)H(4))CH(2)N(CH(2)CH(2)NHSiMe(2)R)(2) (R = Me, H(2)N(2)NN' 3; R = (t)Bu, H(2)N(2)NN() 4) are described via reactions of the previously reported (2-NC(5)H(4))CH(2)N(CH(2)CH(2)NH(2))(2) (1). A new synthesis of 1 is reported starting from 2-aminomethylpyridine and N-tosylaziridine, proceeding via (2-NC(5)H(4))CH(2)N(CH(2)CH(2)NHTs)(2) (2). Reaction of H(2)N(2)NN' or H(2)N(2)NN* with (n)BuLi gives good yields of the dilithiated derivatives Li(2)N(2)NN' and Li(2)N(2)NN*.
