Discover how the humble acetate ion acts as a master builder in metal coordination chemistry—bridging two metals with mu-2 bonds to form lantern-like cages. We trace the bridging motifs that yield the Mo2(O2CCH3)4 dimer and its unprecedented quadruple metal–metal bond, then connect to practical copper(II) and iron acetates used in pigments, mordants, and industry. From a pivotal 1960 discovery to modern materials, learn how a tiny anion shapes big chemistry and bright possibilities.
