Abstract

Reactions of Fe(CO)42− with metal carbonyl complexes lead to distinct mechanisms. Reaction with metal carbonyl cations gives a two-electron process that we interpret as a CO2+ transfer. Reaction with Mn2(CO)10 occurs by a single-electron transfer producing Fe2(CO)82− and Mn(CO)5. Reaction with Mn(CO)6Br also occurs by a single-electron transfer. Reaction with Re(CO)5Br could be either SET or direct nucleophilic displacement. Kinetic studies are reported for several reactions.
