The bishydrosulfido zirconium metallocene compound [Cp tt 2 Zr(SH) 2 ] ( 2 ) containing the bulky η 5 ‐1,3‐di‐ tert‐ butylcyclopentadienyl (Cp tt ) ligand is readily accessible from [Cp tt 2 Zr(CH 3 ) 2 ] ( 1 ) upon treatment with H 2 S. Reaction of 2 with methyltriflate gives the monohydrosulfido complex [Cp tt 2 Zr(SH)(OSO 2 CF 3 )] ( 3 ) which exists as two isomers in solution, and has been characterized by X‐ray diffraction methods. Complex 2 is an effective metallaligand for the controlled synthesis of new trinuclear early‐late heterobimetallic complexes (ELHB) with a ZrRh 2 core such as [Cp tt 2 Zr(μ 3 ‐S) 2 {Rh(CO) 2 } 2 ] ( 4 ).
