Organometallic complexes, complexes formed between organic (carbon-
containing) groups and metal atoms, can be divided into two general classes: (1)
complexes containing metal-carbon sigma bonds and (2) pi-bonded metal
complexes ...

Coordination to a positive metal ion usually enhances the acidity (i.e., the
tendency to lose protons) of hydrogen-containing ligands, such as water and
ammonia. Thus, metal ions in aqueous solution commonly exhibit acidic
behaviour.
