The metallation of (2‐pyridylethyl)(tert‐butyldimethylsilyl)amine ( 1 ) with dimethylzinc yields quantitatively dimeric methylzinc (2‐pyridylethyl)(tert‐butyldimethylsilyl)amide ( 2 ). Hydrolysis reactions lead to the precipitation of trakis(methylzinc) bis{2‐pyridylethyl)(tert‐butyldimethylsilyl}amide](μ 4 ‐oxide)] ( 3 ).
