The molecule glycerol (H3gly) plays a key role in sustainable and green chemistry. Having been discovered for over 200 years and produced from vegetable oils and animal fats by hydrolysis, saponification and transesterification reactions, this natural triol is today employed in a wide range of cosmetic, food, polymer and pharmaceutical applications. Moreover, it is an essential C3 precursor in the chemical industry, used in the production of several intermediates and it avoids the need for petroleum-based precursors. Less famous but just as exciting, in the domain of coordination chemistry, glycerol is also proving to be a suitable ligand, capable of binding to one or more metal centres, either directly in its triol H3gly form (rather rare), or in its various deprotonated glycerolate forms, such as [H2gly]−, [Hgly]2− and [gly]3− (in most cases). Since the 1970s, various molecular structures prepared from glycerol and metallic and organometallic precursors, ranging from mononuclear complexes to sophisticated aggregates and coordination polymers, have been isolated and characterised. On the basis of the single-crystal X-ray diffraction structures described so far in the literature and deposited in the Cambridge Structural Database, in this structural inventory, we review the different modes of coordination of glycerol and glycerolates with metals.
