Iron dihydride complexes often play important roles in catalytic reactions that employ reducing agents such as H 2 , boranes, and silanes. Development of more efficient and selective iron‐based catalysts for these processes requires effective synthetic strategies and a deeper understanding of the reactivity of the dihydride complexes. The purpose of this review is to provide the readers with an overview of different ligand systems that have been used to support iron dihydride complexes.
