| Usually, organometallic compounds are considered to contain | | |
| The metal (M) in these species can either be a main group element or | | |
| Operationally, the definition of an organometallic compound is more relaxed to include also | | |
| Organometallic compounds are mainly considered | | |
| It is so because organic ligands are often sensitive to | | |
Synthetic methodology enabled the explooration of very weakly coordinating ligands such as
