Metal–Metal Bonds in Catalysis
Abstract
Transition metals can assemble to form multinuclear complexes by engaging in direct metal-to-metal interactions. Metal–metal covalent bonds provide a large perturbation in electronic structure, relative to mononuclear metal ions, and the unique properties of these dinuclear fragments can be harnessed in a broad range of applications—for example, as chromophores in photochemical processes, redox centers in molecular electronics, or structural elements in metal–organic materials. There is a growing body of evidence that metal–metal bonds may also be formed under conditions relevant to catalysis and play a key role in transformations that were previously assumed to only involve mononuclear species. These findings have stimulated interest in characterizing multinuclear reaction pathways and developing well-defined multinuclear platforms as catalytic active sites. In this Perspective, we present case studies in this emerging area of catalysis research, emphasizing the impact of metal–metal bonding in either enhancing or depressing the rate and/or selectivity of a catalytic organic transformation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
