Abstract
Metallacumulenes and carbide complexes exhibit diverse structures and modes of reactivity. This review presents an overview of work in the author's research group on vinylidene complexes of group 6 and 8 metals, allenylidene and butatrienylidene complexes of group 8 metals, and metal carbide, bicarbide and tricarbide complexes of group 6, 7 and 8 metals.

Bibliographical note
Funding Information:I am grateful to the postdoctoral associates, graduate students and undergraduate students who worked on this project in my research group, with apologies to anyone who did not receive credit where it was due. Particular thanks go to those who allowed me to quote details of their (unfortunately) unpublished work. I thank colleagues, including Carolyn P. Brock, Sean Parkin, Brian Patrick, Alberto Carrillo, Philip Fanwick, and Arnold Rheingold, who helped us out with many crystal structure determinations. I am indebted to the U.S. Department of Energy, the National Science Foundation, the Petroleum Research Fund of the American Chemical Society and the University of Kentucky, all of whom funded aspects of this work. Finally, I appreciate the reviewers’ helpful comments on the first version of this manuscript.
