Formation An approach to form QM complexes in which the QM ligand is coordinated only via the exocyclic C=C bond and can be released from the metal was developed by Milstein.18,19 The synthetic strategy is based on the idea that a zwitterionic t -methylene-p-phenoxy metal complex may undergo charge transfer to the metal, resulting in an ri2-methylenep-QM complex of the reduced metal center (Scheme 3.9).
