Can Coordination Environments be Tuned for Better Catalytic Performance?
Yes, coordination environments can be fine-tuned by modifying the _ligands_ or the _metal center_. This is often done through _ligand exchange_, _metal substitution_, or by introducing _co-catalysts_ that alter the local environment around the metal center. Such modifications can lead to enhancements in _activity_, _selectivity_, and _lifetime_ of the catalyst.
