Discuss the nature of bonding in metal carbonyls.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The metal-carbon bond in metal carbonyls have both sigma `(sigma)` and pi `(pi)` characters. The metal-carbon `alpha`-bond is formed by the donation of lone pair of electrons of the carbonyl carbon to a vacant orbital of the metal. The metalcarbon `pi`-bond is formed by the donation of a pair of electrons from a filled d-orbital of metal into the vacant
