Abstract
Recent advances on metal carbonyl cations and their catalytic activities are reviewed and discussed in relation to the property of M–CO bonding. In strong acids, the carbonyl cations of monovalent copper, silver and gold catalyze the carbonylation of olefins, alcohols, dienes, diols, aldehydes and saturated hydrocarbons at room temperature and atmospheric pressure to produce tert-alkanoic acids in high yields.
