Question:

(a) Use the references in the paper by O.S. Jina, X.Z. Sun, and M.W. George (J. Chem. Soc., Dalton Trans., 2003, 1773) to produce a review of the use of matrix isolation in the characterization of organometallic noble-gas complexes.

(b) How did the methods used by these authors differ from the usual techniques of matrix isolation? 

(c) Place the complexes [MnCp(CO)2Xe], [RhCp(CO)Xe], [MnCp(CO)2Kr], [Mo(CO)5Kr], and [W(CO)5Kr] in order of increasing stability towards CO substitution.
