MCQ
In $Fe(CO)_5$ , the $Fe—C$ bond has
- AIonic character
- B$\sigma -$ character only
- C$\pi -$ character only
- ✓both $\sigma $ and $\pi $ character
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
both $\sigma $ and $\pi $ character
d
There is $d \pi-\rho \pi$ metal to ligand back bonding in $Fe - C$ bond of $Fe ( CO )_5$. So, it possesses both $\sigma$ and $\pi$ character.
