Question:
Name the species, draw the structures of, and give valence electron counts to the metal atoms in:
(a) [Fe(CO)5],
(b) [Mn2(CO)10],
(c) [V(CO)6],
(d) [Fe(CO)4]2−,
(e) [La(η5-Cp*)3],
(f) [Fe(η3-allyl)(CO)3Cl],
(g) [Fe(CO)4(PEt3)],
(h) [Rh(Me) (CO)2(PPh3)],
(i) [Pd(Me)(Cl)(PPh3)2],
(j) [Co(η5-C5H5)(η4-C4Ph4)],
(k) [Fe(η5-C5H5)(CO)2]−,
(l) [Cr(η6-C6H6)(η6-C7H8)],
(m) [Ta(η5-C5H5)2Cl3],
(n) [Ni(η5-C5H5)NO].
Do any of the complexes deviate from the 18-electron rule? If so, how is this reflected in their structure or chemical properties?
