Tolman's rule states that, in a certain chemical reaction, the steps involve exclusively intermediates of 18- and 16 electron configuration. The rule is an extension of the 18-electron rule. This rule was proposed by American chemist Chadwick A. Tolman. As stated above, Tolman's rule, even for reactions that proceed via 2e− steps, is incorrect because many reactions involve configurations of fewer than 16 e−. CH3I + cis-[Rh(CO)2I2]− → [(CH3)Rh(CO)2I3]− Conversely, complexes of 18 electron configuration tend to dissociate ligands or undergo reductive elimination: Rh(PPh3)3ClH2 → Rh(PPh3)3Cl + H2

| - Tolman's rule states that, in a certain chemical reaction, the steps involve exclusively intermediates of 18- and 16 electron configuration. The rule is an extension of the 18-electron rule. This rule was proposed by American chemist Chadwick A. Tolman. As stated above, Tolman's rule, even for reactions that proceed via 2e− steps, is incorrect because many reactions involve configurations of fewer than 16 e−. Many examples of homogeneous catalysis involving organometallic complexes involve shuttling of complexes between 16 and 18 electron configurations. 16-electron complexes often form adducts with Lewis bases and, if low-valent, undergo oxidative addition. CH3I + cis-[Rh(CO)2I2]− → [(CH3)Rh(CO)2I3]− Conversely, complexes of 18 electron configuration tend to dissociate ligands or undergo reductive elimination: Rh(PPh3)3ClH2 → Rh(PPh3)3Cl + H2 (en)
