Abstract In this article we review the synthesis, reactivity, and characterization of a number of clusters bearing the [2.2] paracyclophane ligand with nuclearities ranging from two to eight. Particular attention is focused on the different coordination modes that paracyclophane adopts; these being µ1-η 6, µ2-η 3 :η 3, µ3-η 1 :η 2 :η 2, and µ3-η 2 :η 2 :η 2. Structural modifications which take place within the ring system on bonding in these various modes are also discussed.
