An organometallic compound is partially characterized by the presence of one or more metal-carbonbonds, in which the carbon involved would, apart from the metal-carbon bond, be otherwise considered a part of an organic compound.

For many organic compounds this technique affords very accurate data, not only because their reaction with oxygen is well characterized and occurs with nearly 100% yield, but also because the standard enthalpies of formation of the products (e.g.
Unfortunately, there are too few cases where the thermochemistry of the same organometalliccompound or of the same reaction have been probed by at least two groups or by at least two different experimental techniques.
Thermochemical data evaluation for organometalliccompounds is still incipient [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] and it may well be possible that different selections will be made in future updates of the Database.
An organometalliccompound is partially characterized by the presence of one or more metal-carbon bonds, in which the carbon involved would, apart from the metal-carbon bond, be otherwise considered a part of an organic compound.
Some organometalliccompounds derived from electropositive elements, such as Grignard reagents and organolithiums, have a high electron density on the carbon.
In certain organometalliccompounds such as ferrocene or dibenzenechromium, the pi-orbitals of the organic moiety ligate the metal.
