The first theoretical evidence for tetracoordinate planar nonmetals hosted at the centers of square hydrometal complexes M 4 H 4 X (M=Cu, Ni; X=B, C, N, O; see picture) has been obtained by ab initio calculations. These predictions may open a new branch of chemistry of nonmetal‐centered hydrometals with potential applications as catalysts.
