Abstract:The heterometallic binuclear cyclopentadienylironnickel carbonyl compounds Cp2FeNi(CO)n (n = 3, 2, 1; Cp = η5‐C5H5) have been studied by density functional theory (BP86) for comparison with the isoelectronic homometallic dicobalt derivatives Cp2Co2(CO)n. The FeNi tricarbonyl is shown to be the doubly bridged isomer Cp2Fe(CO)Ni(μ‐CO)2 with an Fe–Ni distance of 2.455 Å (BP86), in accord with experiment and in contrast to Cp2Co2(CO)3 where singly and triply bridged but not doubly bridged isomers are found. The di… Show more
“…10 Subsequently Cp 2 FeNi(CO) 3 and the related unsaturated Cp 2 FeNi(CO) n (n = 2, 1) systems were studied by density functional theory. 11,12 The mixed cyclopentadienyl molybdenum-ruthenium carbonyl Cp(CO) 3 Mo-Ru(CO) 2 Cp (Fig. 2) was synthesized by Pakkanen et al and used to generate a bimetallic heterogeneous catalyst for hydrodesulfurization reactions.…”
