Metal carbonyl complexes are almost exclusively found in a low-spin state due to the strong-field nature of the CO ligand. Here the characterisation of highly labile three-coordinate metal(I) monocarbonyl complexes of iron and cobalt is presented. Experimental and quantum chemical examinations reveal their high-spin configuration.
