A dinuclear Ni complex with a double-decker structure (see scheme) and a short Ni–Ni distance promotes the copolymerization of ethylene with functional monomers. Matching of the Ni–Ni distance with the co-monomer structure resulted in polymers containing a high density of the co-monomer unit.

The digold(I) complex [Au₂ Cl₂ (Cy₂ PCH₂ PCy₂ )] reacts with 4,4'-diphenylene diboronic acid to form a triangular macrocyclic complex with twisted Au-P-C-P-Au groups at the three corners. The synthesis of the complex and its chemical oxidation produced [6]cycloparaphenylene ([6]CPP) in 59 % overall yield.

trans-Pd(C6H4Me-p)(I)(PEt3)2 (2a) reacts with [Cu(C⋮CPh)(PPh3)]4 (Pd:Cu = 1:1) at room temperature to give the cross-coupling product PhC⋮CC6H4Me-p (3a) in 74% yield. Reactions of 2a with [Cu(C⋮CPh)(PPh3)]4 at −30 °C as well as of trans-Pd(C6H4X-p)(I)(PEt3)2 (2a, X = Me; 2b, X = OMe; 2c, X = F) with the alkynylcopper complex and additional PPh3 (2 mol/mol of Cu) at room temperature give mixtures of PhC⋮CC6H4X-p (3a, X = Me; 3b, X = OMe; 3c, X = F) and trans-Pd(C6H4X-p)(C⋮CPh)(PEt3)2 (4a, X = Me;
