Several metal formyl complexes were prepared by reacting Li(C/sub 2/H/sub 5/)/sub 3/BH with metal carbonyl cations containing manganese, rhenium, iridium, and molybdenum. Preparative conditions, percentage yields, thermal stabilities, and /sup 1/H NMR chemical shifts relative to (CH/sub 4/)/sub 4/Si are given for several of the products. Over the course of ten minutes the reaction of HMn(CO)/sub 5/ and HMo(C/sub 5/H/sub 5/)(CO)/sub 3/ resulted in the formation of Mn(CO)/sub 10/ and benzaldehyde. The compounds are used to illustrate the types of intermediates which may be initially formed in Fischer--Tropsch type synthesis. 1 table, 1 scheme.
