It's not gambling , but sometimes its feels like this. Nitrogen‐based ditopic ligands are relevant to many areas of chemistry and they grant access to mononuclear and polynuclear complexes with elements from all sections of the Periodic Table. However, the prediction of their manifold coordination modes is still challenging and minor changes with respect to the backbone, the bridging group, and the terminal substituents of the ligand or to the metal(loid) itself, will cause the cards to be shuffled anew. For more details see the Review by R. Kretschmer on page 2099 ff.
