A metathesis is a bimolecular process formally involving the exchange of a bond (or bonds) between similar interacting chemical species so that the bonding affiliations in the products are identical (or closely similar) to those in the reactants. (This is the definition in physical organic chemistry, requiring only one bond to be exchanged).
