The first stable neutral formyl complexes of a light transition metal , the title compounds 2 with aryl phosphite ligands, were prepared by reduction of the cations of 1 . Formyl complexes have been postulated as intermediates in the homogeneous catalytic hydrogenation of CO (L P(OPh) 3 , L′ CO; L P( o ‐OTolyl) 3 , L′ CO; L L′ P(OPh) 3 ).
