  abstractNote={<jats:p>Oxydation of (dpp-BIAN)Ca(THF)<jats:sub>4</jats:sub> with 0.5 equiv. of I<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> in THF yields [(dpp-BIAN)CaI(THF)<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>]<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> (1). A corresponding neodymium compound [(dpp-BIAN)NdCl(THF)<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>]<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> (2) has been obtained by reaction of (dpp-BIAN)Na<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> with NdCl<jats:sub>3</jats:sub> in THF. The X-ray single crystal structure analyses show 1 and 2 to be isostructural dimers containing octahedrally coordinated metal atoms bridged by the respective halides. The chelating dpp-BIAN ligand acts as a radical anion in the Ca<jats:sup>2+</jats:sup> complex 1 and as a dianion in the Nd<jats:sup>3+</jats:sup> complex 2, respectively.</jats:p>},
