Nitroso and Nitro Compounds with the Metal Centre

INTERACTION OF NITROSO AND NITRO COMPOUNDS WITH THE METAL CENTRE. 

In this section we will consider the interaction o-f nitroso and nitro compounds with the metal centre, but we will not Include the reactions o-f aliphatic nitroso derivatives having a -CH- group in the oC position, since they are completely isomerlsed In solution to the correspondig oximesflSj. Moreover we will not Include the reactions o-f aliphatic nitro derivatives when they react with the metal in their anionic -form 

The coordination chemistry o-f nitroso compounds is well understood. Three types o-f coordination modes have been recognised  

In this complex ) N0) was observed at 1565 cm-1, but this assignement has not yet con-firmed by labeling studies. 

The rather short N-0 bond distance p.218 4) A 3 suggests that no electron density is delocalyzed into the ifsystem o-f the nitroso group. Even coordination o-f type B) does not change substantially the -N 0 bond order. In trans-dichlorobis(nitrosobenzene)pal1adium(II)
