The present invention relates, inter alia, to methodologies for the synthesis, screening and characterization of organometallic compounds and catalysts (e.g., homogeneous catalysts). The methods of the present invention provide for the combinatorial synthesis, screening and characterization of libraries of supported and unsupported organometallic compounds and catalysts (e.g., homogeneous catalysts). The methods of the present invention can be applied to the preparation and screening of large numbers of organometallic compounds which can be used not only as catalysts (e.g., homogeneous catalysts), but also as additives and therapeutic agents.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A method of making an array of metal-ligand compounds, said method comprising:(a) synthesizing a first metal-binding ligand and a second metal-binding ligand on first and second regions on a substrate, wherein said first and second metal-binding ligands are different; and

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A method of making an array of metal-ligand compounds, said method comprising:(a) synthesizing a first metal-binding ligand and a second metal-binding ligand on first and second regions on a substrate, wherein said first and second metal-binding ligands are different; and(b) delivering a first metal ion to said first metal-binding ligand and a second metal ion to said second metal-binding ligand to form a first metal-ligand compound and a second metal-ligand compound, wherein said first metal ion and said second metal ion are the same or different; and(c) activating said first metal-ligand compound with a first activator to form a first activated metal-ligand compound and said second metal-ligand compound with a second activator to form a second activated metal-ligand compound: such that each region contains one and only one type of activated metal ligand compound and rein said first and second activators are the same or different and are independently selected from the group consisting of alkylating agents and ionizing agents.
