Due to their stability and their easy formation, many examples of transition metal complexes containing benzoyl-substituted thiourea ligands have been described [59-62]. Most of them concern Ft species in which the thiourea ligands behave as monoanions and are bounded to the metal centre through the S and O atoms, forming a six-member ring system (Scheme 10). 

Transition metal complexes containing Si-OH groups have been isolated in low yield after hydrolysis of the products formed in the reaction between (Me2N)2SiCl2 and ferrocene under Friedel-Crafts conditions [Eq. (25)] (151).

In many other reactions of zirconacydes catalyzed by transition metal complexes containing Cu, Ni, Pd, etc., a-bond metathesis (transmetallation) must undoubtedly be involved, but such products have not generally been identified. Partly for this reason, they are not discussed here. Readers are referred to the chapter by T. Takahashi.

A great deal of emphasis has been placed on the study of transition-metal complexes containing two or more metal centers. These complexes are useful as model systems for the study of intermolecular interactions between metal centers as well as the examination of electron-transfer reactions between donor and acceptor species. 

The present volume is a non-thematic issue and includes seven contributions. The first chapter byAndreja Bakac presents a detailed account of the activation of dioxygen by transition metal complexes and the important role of atom transfer and free radical chemistry in aqueous solution. The second contribution comes from Jose Olabe, an expert in the field of pentacyanoferrate complexes, in which he describes the redox reactivity of coordinated ligands in such complexes. The third chapter deals with the activation of carbon dioxide and carbonato complexes as models for carbonic anhydrase, and comes from Anadi Dash and collaborators. This is followed by a contribution from Sasha Ryabov on the transition metal chemistry of glucose oxidase, horseradish peroxidase and related enzymes. In chapter five Alexandra Masarwa and Dan Meyerstein present a detailed report on the properties of transition metal complexes containing metal-carbon bonds in aqueous solution. Ivana Ivanovic and Katarina Andjelkovic describe the importance of hepta-coordination in complexes of 3d transition metals in the subsequent contribution. The final chapter by Sally Brooker and co-workers is devoted to the application of lanthanide complexes as luminescent biolabels, an exciting new area of development. 

Acknowledgments. Like editors of previous volumes of this series, I am indebted to many colleagues for contributions to this work. First there are Wolfgang Beck in Munich, Ekkehard Lindner in Tubingen, and John R. Shapley in Urbana, who assisted me in the selections and solicitations for three special collections transition metal complexes containing weakly bonded anions (Chapter 3), metalocyclic complexes (Chapter 4), and polynuclear transition metal complexes (Chapter 5), respectively. Each has contributed a preface for the chapter he helped to form, following the pattern set in Volume XII when Alan G. MacDiarmid invited E. C. Ashby and myself to form a chapter on metal hydrides. As a consequence of such efforts, more than two-thirds of this volume consists of invited preparations. 

Similarity to the C,H7 anion is apparent if you allow each phosphorus a Jone pair of electrons, which gives five p orbitals (with six electrons) available for it bonding. Transition metal complexes containing P, rings, however, were known prior to the synthesis of the free P5 ligand (see Chapter 15) "M Examples are [( -CjMe Fet 5-...
