• One of the keys to understanding reactivity and selectivity of mono‐ or bimetallic reagents is to have knowledge of their chemical structure, either in the solid state or in the solution state. This chapter looks at the structural evidence for these synergic main group bases. To fully grasp the implications of structure on reactivity it is important to first consider the most important homometallic bases. Like homometallic species, a structural understanding of bimetallic complexes provides considerable insight into their reactivity. The chapter discusses some of the most important and instructive examples of bimetallic complexes, focusing on our structural understanding of them and how this relates to their reactivity. Some common heteroalkali metallic secondary amides display a wide variety in their structures. Synergistic properties have been described in terms of one component acting as a promoter. Sub‐valent main group metals can induce synergistic effects in partnership with another metal.
