Abstract
Kinetic studies of selected metal carbonyl anions establish their reactivity as nucleophiles or for electron transfer. The iron species, [HFe(CO)3L]- (L = CO, PPh3), behave as metal-centered nucleophiles when reacted with [M(CO)6]+ (M = Mn, Re). Determination of the deuterium kinetic isotope ratio from kinetic studies of [HFe(CO)4]- and [DFe(CO)4]-, kH/kD = 2.8, indicates primary isotope effects for reaction with Mn(CO)6+. Initial products from transfer of a CO and back transfer of two electrons are observed in some cases. For Re-(CO)6+ exclusive formation of HRe(CO)5 as a rhenium product strongly indicates a hydrogen transfer mechanism.
