Question

, determine the formal oxidation state of the transition metal and the corresponding number of d electrons. State whether each one is likely to be stable enough to be characterized.

Q1) For each of the following compounds, determine the formal oxidation state of the transition metal and the corresponding number of d electrons. State whether each one is likely to be stable enough to be characterized. (1) [Re(CO)5]     (2) [HFe(CO)4]-       (3)  ((ŋ6-C5H5)2Fe)    (4) ((ŋ6-C6H6)2Cr)      (5) ((ŋ5-C5H5)ZrCl(OCH3)      (6) (IrCl(PPh3)3)     (7) (Mo(CO)3(PPh3)3)      (8) (Fe(CO)4(C2H4))     (9) (W(CO)5Cl)-     (10) Ni(CO)4)


Q2) Use the 18-electron rule to predict the number of carbonyl ligands, n, in each of the following complexes:     (1) [Cr(CO)n]     (2) [Fe(CO)n(PPh3)2)]  (3) [Mo(CO)n(PMe3)3]           (4) [W(CO)n(ŋ6-C6H6)
