A transformation with promising versatility : The vinyl zirconium complex 1 can be prepared readily in situ from the educts mentioned in the title and reacts with electrophiles, including other transition metal complexes, to give polysubstituted olefins (see scheme; n =0–2, Cp=C 5 H 5 ). A five‐membered zirconacycle en route to the vinyl complex apparently isomerizes to give the stable E isomer before elimination.
