A comparison of the bonding in Cr(NO)4 and Ni(CO)4The bonding in Cr(NO)4 is very ionic, with about 1.5 electrons donated from the Cr to the NO 2pi orbitals. There is also a NO sigma donation of about 0.5 electrons to the Cr, yielding a net charge of Cr of about 1. A large MCSCF expansion is needed to describe both the ionic and covalent contributions to the Cr 3d-NO 2pi bonding. This bonding is compared to that in the isoelectronic Ni(CO)4.
