Quadruple bonding to main group elements is extremely rare although they have four valence orbitals accessible for bonding. Here we report the unprecedented quadruple bonding between a carbon atom and a transition metal fragment Fe(CO)3 based on high level theoretical calculations. Various bonding analyses reveal the unprecedented nature of the CFe quadruple bonding interaction. The validity of the single electron transmutation concept has been tested which fruitfully reproduces the structural and bonding similarities between the two neighbours in the periodic table.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
