Definition of an organometallic compound
An organometallic compound is one that contains at least one metal–carbon bond where the carbon belongs to an organic ligand such as CO, alkyl, aryl, etc.
-
Analyze the compound
The given compound is:
Here, carbon monoxide () acts as a ligand and binds to manganese through the carbon atom, forming an bond.
-
Check the options
-
A: bond
This bond is present in carbon monoxide itself, but it does not make a compound organometallic. -
B: bond
A metal-metal bond does not define organometallic character. -
C: bond
In metal carbonyls, bonding occurs through carbon, not oxygen. -
D: bond
This is the defining feature of an organometallic compound.
-
-
Conclusion
Therefore, is organometallic due to the presence of the bond.
Correct option: D
