The CO insertion reaction for the complex [Fe(CO)2(PMe3)2(Me)(CN)] is second order in many solvents. The solvent effect on the kinetics and the equilibria is very small. This fact is attributed to the small interaction between the reactive intermediate and the solvent, and to the small variation of the dipole moment during the course of the reaction.
