Vibrational spectroscopy at very high pressures. Eclipsed decacarbonyl-dimanganese and decacarbonyldirhenium
Abstract
Solid state phase transitions have been discovered in Mn2(CO)10, (ca, 8 kbar), and Re2(CO)10, (ca, 5 kbar) and the Raman spectra ore consistent with a change in molecular geometry from staggered to eclipsed.
