Yttrocene is an organoyttrium compound with the chemical formula Y(C₅H₅)₃. It forms light yellow crystals and can be obtained by reacting anhydrous yttrium(III) chloride and sodium cyclopentadienide in tetrahydrofuran. It decomposes when exposed to water to produce cyclopentadiene and yttrium(III) hydroxide.^[1] Its thermal stability is between ferrocene and other 3D transition metal tricene complexes.^[2]
