Abstract
A transient species (k ca. 10 s–1), formed from flash photolysis of Fe(CO)5 in C6D6 and assigned from its i.r. spectrum as Fe(CO)4·(C6D6), reacts with CO to give Fe(CO)5 and with Fe(CO)5 to give a binuclear iron carbonyl compound, apparently in both cases via a highly reactive intermediate.
