Abstract
Abstract Catalyst compositions containing the cations M22 , M2(OCOR)4 nn , M2(OCSR)4 nn , M2(OCSR)4 n WHERE M is a transition metal which are useful for hydrogenation, hydroformylation, carbonylation, isomerization, disproportionation, and hydrosilation reactions, and methods of making by protonation of corresponding carboxylates, thiocarboxylates, or dithiocarboxylates.
