Abstract
Through a dramatic advance in the coordination chemistry of the zinc-hydride bond, we describe the trajectory for the approach of this bond to transition metals. The dynamic reaction coordinate was interrogated through analysis of a series of solid state structures and is one in which the TM-H-Zn angle becomes increasingly acute as the TM-Zn distance decreases. Parallels may be drawn with the oxidative addition of boron-hydrogen and silicon-hydrogen bonds to transition metal centers.
