Catalytic reactions resulting from our C–X (X = H, C, O, N, halide) bond activation studies are described. Aryl chlorides can react with aluminum alkyls in preference to bromides. Using PCP-type Pd catalysts, Heck reaction with aryl iodides and bromides can proceed without involvement of Pd(0). Ru-catalyzed oxidative coupling of arenes with alkenes using O2 was accomplished. Using specifically designed systems, the scope and mechanisms of C–C activation in solution was studied and compared to C–H activation. C–C activation by Rh(I), Ir(I), Ni(II),Pt(II), Ru(II), and Os(II) was observed. Metal insertion into a strong C–C bond can be kinetically and thermodynamically more favorable than the competing C–H activation. Selective, single-step oxidative addition of a strong C–C bond to a metal was observed and kinetically evaluated. Catalytic C–C hydrogenolysis was demonstrated. A combination of C–C activation and C–R formation (R = aryl, silyl) resulted in unusual methylene transfer chemistry. Selective activation of aryl–O and Me–O bonds was observed. New types of interactions between metals and arenes and unusual quinonoid complexes, including quinone methides, xylylenes, methylene arenium, and a metallaquinone, were discovered. C–H and C–C agostic complexes of cationic metals, proposed as intermediates in bond activation, were isolated. Stabilization and controlled release of biologically relevant, extremely unstable, simple quinone methides, was accomplished.

Metal–ligand cooperation (MLC) plays an important role in bond activation processes, enabling many chemical and biological catalytic reactions. A recent new mode of activation of chemical bonds involves ligand aromatization–dearomatization processes in pyridine-based pincer complexes in which chemical bonds are broken reversibly across the metal centre and the pincer-ligand arm, leading to new bond-making and -breaking processes, and new catalysis. In this short review, such processes are briefly exemplified in the activation of C–H, H–H, O–H, N–H and B–H bonds, and mechanistic insight is provided. This new bond activation mode has led to the development of various catalytic reactions, mainly based on alcohols and amines, and to a stepwise approach to thermal H 2 and light-induced O 2 liberation from water.

The reaction mechanism of the activation of ethane by nickel atom has been investigated by density functional theory (DFT). The geometries and vibration frequencies of reactants, intermediates, transition states and products have been calculated at the B3LYP/6-311 + +G(d, p) level. Two main pathways, C – C bond activation and C – H bond activation, are identified. In former channel, the rate-limiting step is found to be hydrogen-transferring step with a high barrier of 227 kJ · mol-1. In the C – H bond activation pathway, the second hydrogen-transferring step is the rate-determining step of the whole reaction. The barrier of the step is 71 kJ · mol-1. Our results show that the studied reaction would undergo along C – H bond activation pathway to form the products H 2 molecule and Ni ⋯ethene complex. The present theoretical work indicates that Ni atom is more active than Ni + cation in activating ethane.
