The crystal structure of the title compound, [Hf(C10H15)2(C4H9)2], reveals two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The diffraction experiment was performed with a racemically twinned crystal showing a 0.529 (5):0.471 (5) component ratio. Each HfIV atom is coordinated by two pentamethylcyclopentadienyl and two n-butyl ligands in a distorted tetrahedral geometry, with the cyclopentadienyl rings inclined to one another by 45.11 (15) and 45.37 (16)°. In contrast to the isostructural di(n-butyl)bis([eta]5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)zirconium(IV) complex with a noticeable difference in the Zr-butyl bonding, the Hf-Cbutyl bond lengths differ from each other by no more than 0.039 (3) Å.
Crystal structure of bis(η5-cyclopenta-dienyl)(2, 3-diethylbutane-1, 4-diyl)-hafnium(IV)

The title compound, [Hf(C5H5)2(C8H16)], proves a structural motif of hafnacyclopentane besides the coordination of two cyclopentadienyl ligands in an [eta]5-fashion. The hafnacyclopentane ring has a twist conformation and is substituted by two ethyl groups in the [beta],[beta]'-positions, which are trans orientated to each other. One cyclopentadienyl ring and one ethyl group are each disordered over two positions with site-occupancy ratios of 0.679 (15):0.321 (15) and 0.702 (18):0.298 (18), respectively.
Crystal structure of bis(η5-cyclopenta-dienyl)(1,4-di-tert-butylbuta-1-en-3-yn-1-yl) zirconium(IV) μ2-hydroxido-bis[tris-(pentafluorophenyl) borate]

Alkyl zirconocene cations have been of considerable interest as reactive species in many polymerization processes. In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Zr(C12H19)(C5H5)2](C36HB2F30O), the [Zr(C5H5)2((t-Bu)C=C(H)-C2(t-Bu))]+ cation displays a buta-1-en-3-yne ligand side-on coordinated to a typical bent zirconocene [centroid(cp)-Zr-centroid(cp) = 131.4 (3)°, Zr-C(buta-1-en-3-yne) = 2.255 (3), 2.597 (3) and 2.452 (2) Å]. In the [HO(B(C6F5)3)2]- anion, intramolecular O-H...F hydrogen bonds are observed. One tert-butyl group in the complex cation is disordered over two sets of sites with occupancies 0.701(4):0.299(4).
