A graduate student synthesized the complex [Ir(Cp)(bpy)F](CIO4) using the hydroxide ligand precursor [Ir(Cp)(bpy)(OH)](CIO4). Using your knowledge of XRD, CHN analysis, Mass Spec, vibrational spectroscopy, and NMR, describe how each technique might be used to characterize the product to ensure that no reactant was remaining (i.e. how might each technique differentiate the two molecules?). Give detailed responses on what information would and wouldn't be obtained from each technique.
1H NMR spectrum of (C5H5)2Fe(CO)2 shows two peaks of equal area at room temperature, but has four resonances of relative intensity 5:2:2:1 at low temperatures. Explain this thinking about C5H5 ligand haptisity?
(c) Please illustrate the orbital overlap that describes "back-bonding" on a transition metal M-CO adduct. generic

You must include sketches of the orbital overlaps for full marks. ii. Suggest a strategy to increase the strength of the interaction between the metal and alkene ligand. Briefly explain how and why this strategy affects metal-carbon and carbon-carbon bond strength and geometry.

Show the derivation of the rate law expression for the ligand substitution of 2a (shown below).
4. Introducing n-interactions from our M-Lo-only description. a. Using group theory, derive the full MO diagram for the hypothetical ion ReCla in square planar geometry, showing all the metal valence orbitals and all relevant ligand orbitals. For simplicity, you should disregard the n-donor ability (which is pretty weak) of the chlorines in all questions (here and below), and view each Cl atom as presenting a single a-symmetry orbital toward the metal. Also, Re 6s and 5d orbitals are at -8.76 and -9.70 eV, respectively, consider the CI SALCS at -13.67 eV. Populate your diagram with electrons. Your d-splitting diagram should reflect the relative spacing that you expect from the Angular Overlap Method.
2. a) Trialkylphosphine and ammonia are both strong-field ligands. However, experimental data show that in their complexes PR3 ligands cause higher splitting energy(A.) than NH; although the central metal atoms are in the same VA group. How can you explain these results? b) Give a comparison on the formation constants of the following substitution reactions and give an explanation.
