Zirconium halide complexes. Synthesis, structure, practical application potential

Abstract

Obtaining methods, some reactions, and structural features of zirconium halide complexes, as well as examples of their possible applications have been systematized and described, based on the analysis of the literature published mainly from 2018 until 2021. In discussion of the synthetic methods the main attention is focused on the most effective approaches for preparing such compounds. Reactions of zirconium complex formation are studied. Information about biological and catalytic activity of some zirconium derivatives is given.
