This chapter deals with the chemistry of η5- and η6-half-sandwich ruthenium and osmium complexes bearing η1-metal–carbon bonds. They belong to two types: (i) complexes with formally single σ-M–C bonds and (ii) complexes with MC (alkylidene and Fisher-type carbenes) and MC bonds (carbynes). Only a fe...
