✦ Synopsis

The data on synthesis, structure and reactivity of lanthanide compounds (except samarium, europium and ytterbium derivatives as well as insertion phases of LnX 2 type) containing a metal in subvalent state with a particular emphasis on divalent derivatives are collected and systematized. Most of the references considered concern diiodides of Nd(II), Dy(II) and Tm(II) and their reactions with various substrates although a number of Sc(II), La(II) and Ce(II) complexes and multiple attempts to synthesize other divalent compounds of rare earth metals are also described.
