It's easy to C : The reaction of [Re(CO) 2 (CS)(η‐C 5 H 5 )] with [Re(CO) 2 (thf)(η‐C 5 H 5 )] affords the disulfur complex [Re(CO) 2 (η 2 ‐S 2 )(η‐C 5 H 5 )] and the remarkably simple μ‐carbido complex [(μ‐C){Re(CO) 2 (η‐C 5 H 5 )} 2 ], which has been structurally characterized and computationally investigated (see picture; black C, white H, red O, green Re).
