Oxidative addition

Oxidative addition and reductive elimination are two important and related classes of reactions in organometallic chemistry.[1][2][3][4] Oxidative addition is a process that increases both the oxidation state and coordination number of a metal centre. Oxidative addition is often a step in catalytic cycles, in conjunction with its reverse reaction, reductive elimination.[5]
