Coordination Complexes in Biological Systems
Porphyrins are heterocyclic macrocycles composedof four modified interconnected pyrrole subunitsof four modified interconnected pyrrole subunits.They form coordination complexes with metal ionsand are found in biological systems.

Hemoglobin and Myoglobin
Isolated protein free heme model system binds CO 25,000 times stronger than O2than O2 steric constraints imposed by the amino acid residue on the distal side of the porphyrin (distal histidine) and by selective hydrogen bonding favoring O2 over CO coordination (less for CO; KCO/KO2 = 200)

Organometallic Chemistry
Organometallic Compounds
In simpler terms these are compounds containing metal-carbon bonds
Examples: CH3-MgBr, Ph-Li, [Ni(CO)4], Ferrocene etc.
These compounds can be seen as having covalent bonds between the metal and thecarbon atom(s).
In general, compounds having a metal-ligand bond of considerable covalent characterIn general, compounds having a metal ligand bond of considerable covalent characterhave similar chemistry and follow the chemical behavior of organometallic compounds
Metal-cyano complexes are not considered as organometallic compounds, while metaly p g p ,carbonyl complexes are.
Compounds with filled octet electrons (such as CH4, NH3, etc.) are stable as they

Having 18 electrons in the outer shell consisting of s, p and d orbitals is consideredas an indication of stability as in inert gases (Kr (36), Xe (54) or Rn(86).
The rule suggests that compounds that can attain 18 electrons within the bondingThe rule suggests that compounds that can attain 18 electrons within the bondingorbitals of the metal show increased stability (Sidwick 1927)

Hapticity: The number of atoms in the ligand which are directly coordinated to the metal.H ti it i d t d
Therefore, this compound is stable
Hapticity is denoted as
By oxidation state of metal and ligandW2+ = 4 electronsOne cyclopentadiene (Cp) = 6 electronsother cyclopentadiene (Cp) = 4 electrons

Therefore, this compound is stable
Polynuclear metal carbonyls :Scope of 18-electron Rule Possible to determine number of metal-metal bonds in the carbonyl complexes Formed to attain the stability through18-electron system.
Let us take example of Mn2(CO)10
2 Mn 2 x 7 = 14
CO 10 x 2 = 20
Total number of Valance electron = 34 / 2 = 17 e- per [Mn(CO)5]Total number of Valance electron 34 / 2 17 e per [Mn(CO)5]
M-M = 2
Therefore total number of Valance electron = 36 (2 x 18)
Experimentally found dimeric structure
Carbonyl groups can also bridge between two metals
Here CO can be seen as contributing one electron each to the two metals
Polynuclear Metal carbonyls: Bridging vs terminal
Here CO can be seen as contributing one electron each to the two metals
Try for Fe2(CO)9
Fe 2 x 8 = 16
Bridged carbonyls between two metals
Fe 2 x 8 = 169 CO 9 x 2 = 18
Total number of Valance electron = 34M-M = 2
Therefore total number of Valance electron = 36 TerminalTherefore total number of Valance electron = 36 Terminalcarbonyls

How to find bridging vs terminal carbonyls in a given metal carbonyl complex?
Determined using Infrared spectroscopy (IR) (through one of the factor vibration of bonds) Bond strength determined using stretching frequency in IR
IR t t hi f
Bond strength determined using stretching frequency in IR Greater the bond strength more the stretching frequency Weaker bond strength in bridged carbonyls resulting less stretching frequency
