•	The naming of organometallic compounds is similar to the naming of coordination compounds, but certain ligands can exhibit multiple modes of bonding, referred to as the hapticity.

•	Over half of the compounds in the Cambridge Structural Database are organometallic in nature, making the database an ideal resource for examining the bonding of such compounds.
