10.2: Organometallic Reactions
( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)
Learning objectives for this unit are to:
- Know the key characteristics of the five reaction classes (ligand association/dissociation, oxidative addition/reductive elimination, cycloaddition/retrocycloaddition, b-elimination/b-insertion; a-elimination/a-insertion)
- Classify reactions based on the changes in coordination number, oxidation state, and total electron count
- Predict the product(s) of a reaction given a reactant and reaction class
