npm scoped packages and powershell

I would like to install new angular2-material npm packages but it seems to be a scoped package and I don't know how to manage that under windows. @ Symbol seems to be problematic with powershell.

npm install --save @angular2-material/{core} 

Unrecognized token in source text.
    At line:1 char:20
    + npm install --save  <<<< @angular2-material/{core}
        + CategoryInfo          : ParserError: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnrecognizedToken

Have someone an idea?

If you can't or don't want to update to Powershell 3.0+, you can use the backtick character (`) to escape the @ symbol:

npm install `@angular2-material/{core}

Ok, found.. It needs Powershell 3.0 to be able to use @-symbol for scoped packages.
