Some related compounds such as [[transition metal hydride]]s and [[metal phosphine complexes]] are often included in discussions of organometallic compounds, though strictly speaking, they are not necessarily organometallic. The related but distinct term "[[metalorganics|metalorganic compound]]" refers to metal-containing compounds lacking direct metal-carbon bonds but which contain organic ligands. Metal β-diketonates, [[alkoxide]]s, dialkylamides, and metal phosphine complexes are representative members of this class.

Boron-containing organometallic compounds are often the result of [[hydroboration]] and [[carboboration]] reactions. [[Tetracarbonyl nickel]] and [[ferrocene]] are examples of organometallic compounds containing [[transition metal]]s.

Complexes where the organic ligands bind the metal through a [[heteroatom]] such as oxygen or nitrogen are considered coordination compounds (e.g., [[heme A]] and [[Tris(acetylacetonato)iron(III)|Fe(acac)<sub>3</sub>]]). However, if any of the ligands form a direct metal-carbon (M-C) bond, then the complex is considered to be organometallic. Although the IUPAC has not formally defined the term, some chemists use the term "metalorganic" to describe any coordination compound containing an organic ligand regardless of the presence of a direct M-C bond.<ref>{{cite book |doi=10.1016/B978-0-12-409547-2.13135-X |chapter=Metalorganic Functionalization in Vacuum |title=Encyclopedia of Interfacial Chemistry |year=2018 |last1=Rodríguez-Reyes |first1=J.C.F. |last2=Silva-Quiñones |first2=D. |pages=761–768 |isbn=978-0-12-809894-3 }}</ref> The status of compounds in which the [[resonance (chemistry)|canonical anion]] has a negative charge that is shared between ([[delocalized electrons|delocalized]]) a carbon atom and an atom more [[electronegativity|electronegative]] than carbon (e.g. [[enolate]]s) may vary with the nature of the anionic moiety, the metal ion, and possibly the medium.

The [[18-electron rule]] is helpful in predicting the stabilities of organometallic complexes, for example [[metal carbonyl]]s and [[Transition metal hydride|metal hydrides]]. The 18e rule has two representative electron counting models, ionic and neutral (also known as covalent) ligand models, respectively.<ref name=":02">{{Cite book |last=Crabtree |first=Robert H. |url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/863383849 |title=The organometallic chemistry of the transition metals |date=2014 |isbn=978-1-118-78824-0 |edition=6 |location=Hoboken, New Jersey |pages=43, 44, 205 |oclc=863383849}}</ref> The hapticity of a metal-ligand complex, can influence the electron count.<ref name=":02" /> [[Hapticity]] (η, lowercase Greek eta), describes the number of contiguous ligands coordinated to a metal.<ref name=":02" /> For example, [[ferrocene]], [(η<sup>5</sup>-C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>5</sub>)<sub>2</sub>Fe], has two [[cyclopentadienyl ligand]]s giving a hapticity of 5, where all five carbon atoms of the C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>5</sub> ligand bond equally and contribute one electron to the iron center. Ligands that bind non-contiguous atoms are denoted the Greek letter kappa, κ.<ref name=":02" /> [[Chelation|Chelating]] κ2-acetate is an example. The [[covalent bond classification method]] identifies three classes of ligands, X,L, and Z; which are based on the electron donating interactions of the ligand. Many organometallic compounds do not follow the 18e rule. The metal atoms in organometallic compounds are frequently described by their [[d electron count]] and [[oxidation state]]. These concepts can be used to help predict their reactivity and preferred [[Molecular geometry|geometry]]. Chemical bonding and reactivity in organometallic compounds is often discussed from the perspective of the [[isolobal principle]]. A wide variety of physical techniques are used to determine the structure, composition, and properties of organometallic compounds. [[X-ray diffraction]] is a particularly important technique that can locate the positions of atoms within a solid compound, providing a detailed description of its structure.{{sfn|Crabtree|2009|p={{pn|date=October 2021}}}}{{sfn|Shriver|Weller|Overton|Armstrong|2014|p={{pn|date=October 2021}}}} Other techniques like [[infrared spectroscopy]] and [[nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy]] are also frequently used to obtain information on the structure and bonding of organometallic compounds.{{sfn|Crabtree|2009|p={{pn|date=October 2021}}}}{{sfn|Shriver|Weller|Overton|Armstrong|2014|p={{pn|date=October 2021}}}} [[Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy]] is a common technique used to obtain information on the electronic structure of organometallic compounds.
