A new route to access low‐coordinate (β‐diketiminato)cadmium complexes has been developed. Treatment of [Cd(HMDS) 2 ] with BDI‐H (HMDS = [N(SiMe 3 ) 2 ]; BDI = [{N(2,6‐ i Pr 2 C 6 H 3 )C(Me)} 2 CH]) forms [(BDI)Cd(HMDS)], which is a useful synthon for the generation of other low‐coordinate cadmium complexes such as anilido complex [(BDI)Cd(NH{N(2,6‐ i Pr 2 C 6 H 3 })(THF)], aryloxo complex [(BDI)Cd(O‐2,6‐ t Bu 2 C 6 H 3 )], as well as chloro complex [{(BDI)CdCl} 2 ]. [(BDI)Cd(HMDS)] is extremely sensitive to hydrolysis, generating [{(BDI)Cd(OH)} 2 ] upon exposure to “dry” tert ‐butyl alcohol.
