Question
Which of the following are π-bonded organometallic compounds ?
Options
A.Ferrocene
B.Diethyl zinc
C.Ethylmagnesium iodide
D.Dibenzene chromium
Solution
(A) and (D) are π-bonded organometallic compounds as they involve the formation of σ-bonds between metal and carbon.
(B) and (C) are σ-bonded organometallic compounds as they only form s bond by sharing of electrons between metal and carbon.
