Photochemical reactions between (L = CO, PBu3, PEt3, P(OMe)3, P(OPh)3, PPh3) and alkyl halides (RX) yield both alkyl and halo complexes, and , in equimolar quantities.Kinetic and quantum yield studies suggest that these reactions proceed by a radical chain pathway involving CO dissociation from the dinuclear complex and metal-metal bond homolysis of the coordinatively unsaturated dinuclear intermediate.
