Abstract
In order to investigate the bonding of the carbene-like ligand AlCp* toward s a has been prepared starting from Cr(CO)SCOT and AlCp*. With the help of its cr ab initio calculations, the Al-Cr bonding is discussed. The strong r educing al towards the chromium atom and finally to the CO ligands. (C) 199 3 Elsevier Science S.A.
