2. Polynuclear metal carbonyls
2.1 Molecules in which all metal atoms are of the same kind
While the and bonds are common covalent bonds whose primary characteristic is their generality, metal-to-metal bonds must also be made with metals of even atomic number.
How do we get there?
The guide is the noble-gas electronic structure achieved in the mononuclear carbonyl metal of even atomic number. The molecular structure would have to be "opened up" in...
