title: Main-group and transition-metal complexes of bis(phosphinimino)methanides.
abstract: Bis(phosphinimino)methanides exhibit a wide variety of coordination chemistry with almost all elements in the periodic table. This critical review deals with the chemistry and coordination behavior of bulky monoanionic {CH(PPh(2)NR)(2)}(-) bis(phosphinimino)methanide and dianionic {C(PPh(2)NR)(2)}(2-) bis(phosphinimino)methanediide (R = SiMe(3), aryl) ligands focusing on s- and p-block as well as transition metals (109 references).
