Abstract
Blurring the boundaries between main-group and transition metal chemistry, Group 14 metallylenes offer a tunable, earth-abundant platform for catalysis. Once the domain of d-block elements, transition metal-like reactivity is now within reach—unlocking new avenues for sustainable small-molecule activation and follow-up reactions through ligand optimization and quantum chemical design. More information can be found in the Review by T. A. Hamlin and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/ceur.202500119).
