2. Polynuclear metal carbonyls

2.1 Molecules in which all metal atoms are of the same kind

While the $Mn — Mn$ and $Co — Co$ 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"...
