Cerium(IV) silylamido complexes have been synthesized by oxidation of their trivalent analogs. These complexes serve as starting materials that allow for further synthetic modifications with maintenance of the cerium(IV) oxidation state, resulting in a series of new tetravalent cerium compounds. Novel cerium(IV) bonds that have been characterized as a result of this work will be discussed, along with the reactivity and possible applications of the compounds.
