Competing reaction pathways in the photochemical reactions of metal carbonyl compounds
type: CreativeWork
description: The photochemical reaction of Mn$\sb2$(CO)$\sb{10}$ with HSnBu$\sb3$ has been studied by continuous photolysis. Sunlamp irradiation of a CO-saturated hexane solution of Mn$\sb2$(CO)$\sb{10}$ and HSnBu$\sb3$ results in formation of HMn(CO)$\sb5$ and Bu$\sb3$SnMn(CO)$\sb5$ in equimolar quantities. The rate of disappearance of Mn$\sb2$(CO)$\sb{10}$ and formation of products exhibit an inverse (CO) dependence.
