Increasingly efficient catalyst-systems stand in the focus of current research in homogeneous metal-complex catalysis, which convert previously inaccessible substrates or enable novel transformations. However, these catalyst systems still usually incorporate non-functional spectator units which fulfill no specific role in the catalytic cycle. Such spectator components will be substituted by others exerting a distinctive role instead, thereby ameliorating the efficiency and overall activity of the catalyst system. New pathways for releasing the active catalyst from the precursor components will be explored.
