Abstract

The para‐substituted diphenylzirconocenes [(t‐BuCp)~2~Zr(p‐C~6~H~4~R)~2~; R = Br, NMe~2~] (A) were easily obtained from the reaction of the appropriate organolithium reagent with bis(t‐butylcyclopentadienyl)zirconium dichloride. Elimination of bromobenzene or N,N‐dimethylaminobenzene from A by slight heating led to arynezirconocenes into which were inserted two equivalents of elementary chalcogens. As a result dichalcogenated zirconacycles [(t‐BuCp)~2~ZrY~2~C~6~H~3~R; Y = S, Se] (B) were obtained. Complexes B constitute useful potential synthons in organic synthesis and a large family of new functionalized dichalcogenated benzenic compounds was prepared by reacting electrophiles.

The structure of complexes B as well as related benzenic derivatives has been confirmed by microanalysis, ^1^H NMR and mass spectrometry.
