The barrier ΔG ≠ for the rotation of the Cp ring in 1 has been estimated from 13 C‐NMR spectra to be 34.2 ± 1.5 kJmol −1 at −90 °C. The other sterically very bulky ligands may be the reason for the rotation about the CpM bond in 1 and 2 being so strongly hindered that it is slow on the NMR time scale below ca. −100 °C. When the styrene ligand in 1 is replaced by an ethylene ligand the Cp‐ 13 C‐NMR signal does not change significantly up to −95 °C.
