A method of forming an interconnect assembly is provided in which contacts exposed at a face of a first element such as, for example, a microelectronic element are aligned and joined with corresponding contacts of an interconnect element confronting the face of the first element. At least one of the i) the contacts of the first element, ii) the corresponding contacts of the interconnect element, iii) a joining metal between the contacts and the corresponding contacts includes a catalyst metal. Subsequently, a material including an organic component contacting the catalyst metal reacts to form volume expansion accommodation elements in the presence of the catalyst metal, the reaction being limited by proximity with the catalyst metal, such that the interconnect assembly includes volume expansion accommodation elements adjacent to the joined contacts.
