Well-defined single-site surface species [(≡Si-O-) Hf (NMe2)3 generates [(≡Si-O-Hf([=NMe)NMe2] that displays a methylimido fragment after 24 hr heating under high vacuum (10-5 mbar). Both surface species were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, 1H-13C HETCOR and DNP. Treatment by minute amount [(≡Si-O-Hf([=NMe)NMe2] of two different imine substrates (imine metatheis) led to rapid imine exchange compared to its Ti and Zr peers catalyst.
