Nitrous oxide is a convenient source of oxygen atoms for the synthesis of oxometallocenes (and the products derived there from) as well as for the insertion of oxygen into metal-hydrogen or -carbon bonds. In this communication we show that (Me[sub 5]C[sub 5])[sub 2]VO and (Me[sub 5]C[sub 5])[sub 2]-Ti(O)(L), where L is pyridine or a substituted pyridine, can be isolated in reactions between nitrous oxide and the metallocenes and that they decompose to the known tetranuclear materials (Me[sub 5]C[sub 5])[sub 4]V[sub 4]([mu]-O)[sub 6] and (Me[sub 5]C[sub 5])[sub 4]([mu]-O)[sub 6]. 18 refs., 2 figs.
