Does anyone remember seeing a table in an inorganic text (I'm guessing circa 1980s vintage) that listed out all the various changes in OS, VEC, dnand CN for the various reactions in organometallic/inorganic chemistry? For example, for oxidative addition, OS, VEC and CN all change by +2, and dn goes down by 2. But this table was very complete and had radical reactions, insertions, ligand exchange reactions, and all sorts of other reactions listed as well. I saw this table once, and thought to myself "oh, I'll totally remember that," with the expected outcome being reached.
It wouldn't be a hard table to recreate, but I hate to redo all the work...
thanks,
Adam

I have crabtree 4th ed. on my desk and table 6.1 does that for oxidative addition. MFT does it for just OA and RE in section 14.1.2.
Haven't seen a comprehensive table though.

Hi Adam,
Found something like it. Table 19.2 in Pfenning's text!

Spessard and Miessler, Organometallic Chemistry, Oxford, 3rd ed. Ch. 7, Table 7-1 has a great table of this information.
I had the same question and found only this older thread. So here you go!
thank you! and it is also in the 2nd edition, table 7-1 as well. I could have used this 6 years ago but I guess better late than never :)
