Abstract

The review presents data on the synthesis, structure, reactivity, and catalytic activity of alkyl derivatives of rare earth metals in the oxidation state +2 (Sm, Eu, Yb) and their analogues containing heavy alkaline earth metals (Ca, Sr, Ba). The synthetic aspects and structural features of this unique class of organometallic compounds, which contain highly reactive M--C bonds, including alkyl, $\alpha$-silylmethyl, and also benzyl, diphenylmethyl, and triphenylmethyl derivatives are considered.

The bibliography includes 157 references.
