✦ Synopsis

σ -BONDED LIGANDS

Metal alkyls and aryls are perhaps the simplest organometallic species. Yet transition metal examples remained very rare until the principles governing their stability were understood in the 1960s and 1970s. These principles make a useful starting point for our study of alkyls because they introduce some of the most important organometallic reactions, which we will go on to study in more detail in later chapters.

After alkyls, we move on to metal hydrides and dihydrogen complexes, another area with important implications for later discussions.
