Antibonding molecular orbitals can be used to make bondsto other atoms in a molecule. For example, metal atomscan use appropriate d orbitals to overlap with the π*2p orbitalsof the carbon monoxide molecule. This is calledd-π backbonding. (a) Draw a coordinate axis system inwhich the y-axis is vertical in the plane of the paper andthe x-axis horizontal. Write “M” at the origin to denote ametal atom. (b) Now, on the x-axis to the right of M, drawthe Lewis structure of a CO molecule, with the carbon nearest the M. The CO bond axis should be on the x-axis.(c) Draw the CO π*2p orbital, with phases (see the “CloserLook” box on phases) in the plane of the paper. Two lobesshould be pointing toward M. (d) Now draw the dxy orbitalof M, with phases. Can you see how they will overlap withthe π*2p orbital of CO? (e) What kind of bond is being madewith the orbitals between M and C, σ or π ? (f) Predict whatwill happen to the strength of the CO bond in a metal–COcomplex compared to CO alone.
