Inverse coordination complexes. Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonate, acyclic polyolato anions, neutral polyols and polyethers as centroligands. Topologies and systematization

Abstract

The article is a companion of a previous review that described topologies of inverse coordination complexes with oxocarbons, other polyoxo carbocyclic molecules and oxygen heterocycles as coordination centers (centroligands). This review presents the inverse coordination complexes based upon oxygen donors as centroligands, such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonate, deprotonated open diols and polyols (anionic polyolates), neutral molecular polyols, and polyethers.

Keywords:

• Oxygen donors
