“…Protonolysis and hydrogenolysis : The protonoloysis of the TM−CH 3 bond to release methane has been widely used as a clean, efficient, and irreversible way of creating a vacant coordination site in transition‐metal complexes, both for reactivity studies and to access active species in catalytic cycles . Other alternative routes to abstract the methyl group and access a vacant site have been commonly employed, including the use of boranes, trityl cation, or radical species …”

Organometallic chemistry can be considered as a wide area of knowledge that combines concepts of classic organic chemistry, i.e. based essentially on carbon, with molecular inorganic chemistry, especially with coordination compounds. Transition metal methyl complexes probably represent the simplest and most fundamental way to view how these two major areas of chemistry combine and merge into novel species with intriguing features in terms of reactivity, structure, and bonding. Citing more than 500 bibliographic references, this review aims to offer a concise view of recent advances in the field of transition metal complexes containing M-CH3 fragments. Taking into account the impressive amount of data that are continuously provided by organometallic chemists in this area, this review is mainly focused on results of the last 5 years. After a panoramic overview on M-CH3 compounds of groups 3 to 11 which includes the most recent landmark findings in this area, two further sections are dedicated to methyl-bridged complexes and reactivity.
