Abstract
The mechanistic aspects of oxidative addition and reductive elimination reactions in systems involving binuclear complexes are discussed. A variety of mechanisms are identified. In some cases the reactive species are mononuclear complexes. In others, binuclear species are directly involved but the oxidative addition or reductive elimination step itself occurs at a single metal atom site. The systems examined fail to reveal distinctive reactivity patterns or roles for binuclear complexes in such oxidative addition or reductive elimination reactions beyond those of thermodynamically stable reactant or product reservoirs.
