Thanks to conceptually new bifunctional molecular catalysts based on Metal-ligand cooperating effect, we could successfully develop highly efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of polar functionalities which cannot easily hydrogenated by conventional homogeneous catalysts, aerobic oxidation of alcohols in which O2 serves as an excellent hydrogen acceptor, asymmetric C-N and C-C bond forming reactions. The concept of bifunctionality established in the mononuclear complex systems could be applied to bifunctional binuclear metal systems.
