Abstract
Metal-ligand cooperativity (MLC) is an established strategy for developing effective hydrogenation and dehydrogenation catalysts. Metal-metal cooperativity (MMC) in bimetallic complexes is not as well understood, and to date has had limited implementation in (de)hydrogenation. Herein we use (de)hydrogenation processes as a platform to examine modes of cooperativity, with a particular focus on catalytic mechanisms. We investigate how lessons learnt from the extensive development of metal-ligand cooperative catalysts can aid the ongoing development of metal-metal cooperative catalysts.
