abstract
Chromium hexacarbonyl has been extensively studied, both experimentally and theoretically, as a model system for transition-metal-carbon monoxide bonding. The near-zerovalent carbonyl complexes known suggest a synergistic effect, i.e., L donation balanced by M L acceptance. Values for these parameters are not readily accessible experimentally, and their magnitudes and relative importance are still being argued in the literature today. 1980, American Chemical Society.
