Abstract: Recent progresses in molecularly imprinted metal–complex catalysts are highlighted in this chapter. Molecular imprinting is a technique to produce a cavity with a similar shape to a particular molecule (template), and the molecularly imprinted cavity acts as shape-selective reaction space for the particular reactant. The application of the molecular-imprinting technique to heterogeneous metal–complex catalysts is focused in the viewpoint of a novel approach in the design of shape-selective catalysis mimicking enzymatic catalysis
