A rare example of an unsubstituted hydrazido(1-) complex, Cp{sup *}{sub 2}ScN(H)NH{sub 2} (Cp{sup *} = ({eta}{sup 5}-C{sub 5}Me{sub 5})), prepared by reaction of 1 equiv of anhydrous hydrazine with Cp{sup *}{sub 2}ScCH{sub 3}, reacts with acetonitrile to form Cp{sup *}{sub 2}ScN(H)C(CH{sub 3})NNH{sub 2}. The crystal structure of the complex is reported and reveals a five-membered, nearly planar (ScN(H)C(CH{sub 3})NNH{sub 2}) ring. The results of a labeling study using {sup 15}N{triple bond}CCH{sub 3} are consistent with a mechanism involving insertion of acetonitrile into the Sc-N bond of Cp{sup *}{sub 2}ScNHNH{sub 2}, followed by tautomerization to form Cp{sup *}{sub 2}ScN(H)C(CH{sub 3})NNH{sub 2}. The closely related compounds Cp{sup *}{sub 2}ScN(H)NMe{sub 2} and Cp{sup *}{sub 2}ScN(H)C(CH{sub 3})NNMe{sub 2} also have been prepared by using an analogous reaction pathway, and the structure of the latter has been determined as well, revealing a four-membered, nearly planar (ScN(H)C(CH{sub 3})N(NMe{sub 2})) ring. 18 refs., 3 figs., 5 tabs.
