Specifically, [Tptm]H reacts with Cd[N(SiMe<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>]<sub>2</sub> to afford [Tptm]CdN(SiMe<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>, which thereby provides access to other derivatives. For example, [Tptm]CdN(SiMe<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> reacts with (i) CO<sub>2</sub> to form {[Tptm]Cd(μ-NCO)}<sub>2</sub> and (ii) Me<sub>3</sub>SiOH and Ph<sub>3</sub>SiOH to form {[κ<sup>3</sup>-Tptm]Cd(μ-OSiMe<sub>3</sub>)}<sub>2</sub> and [Tptm]CdOSiPh<sub>3</sub>, respectively.
