The synthesis and reaction chemistry of second and third series late transition metal oxo and imido complexes are examined. The often serrendipitous syntheses are analyzed and catagorized into general types and according to the metal group. A brief survey of reaction chemistry reveals great diversity ranging from nucleophilic reactivity to oxygen atom and nitrene transfers.
