A construction of the molecular orbitals of a bent bis (jj5-cyclopentadienyl) M fragment, CpaM, M= a transition metal, serves as a starting point for a general account of the electronic structure of Cp2ML „molecules,= 1-3. The following problems are analyzed: the geometry of Cp2ML „as a function of the d electron configuration; bonding with accep-tor and donor ligands, emphasizing orbital interactions with conformational consequences such as olefin and carbene orientation and dithiolene bending; distortions of the CP2M moiety; insertion reactions of coordinated olefins; carbonyl insertion re-actions; oxidative coupling; allyl and tetrahydroborate complexes; triscyclopentadienyl complexes.The remarkably rich chemistry of bent bis (ir-cyclopentadienyl) transition metal complexes1 is the focus of this study. We proceed to formulate a model for the electronic structure of such molecules, and relate that model to the various known complex types, and the known structures. The eventual goal is an understanding of the chemistry of these molecules.
