Reactions of group4metallocene sources with 2‐substituted pyridines were investigated to evaluate their coordination type between innocent and reductive dearomatisation as well as to probe the possibility for couplings. A dependence on the cyclopentadienyl ligands (Cp, Cp*), the metals (Ti, Zr), and the substrates (2‐phenyl‐, 2‐acetyl‐, and 2‐iminopyridine) was observed. While 2‐phenylpyridine is

amidate intermediate has not yet been isolated. Here we present the synthesis, isolation and reactivity of a metal-hydride amidate complex (HMn–NLi). Kinetic studies show that the rate of hydride transfer from HMn–NLi to a ketone is 24-fold higher than that of the corresponding amino metal-hydride complex (HMn–NH). Moreover, the hydrogenation of N-alkyl-substituted aldimines was realized using HMn–NLi
