Abstract:The organometallic chemistry of Rhenium spans 11 oxidation states. Since many ligands stabilize several oxidation states, this chemistry is described by ligand type. Re‐Re multiple bonded organometallic complexes, Polynuclear organometallic complexes, and Bioorganometallic Chemistry, uncoverable in this fashion, are treated separately.
The CO ligand dominates the chemistry of the lower oxidation states (Re
−III
to Re
II
) most of which is d… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
