title: A favorable case where an experimental electron density analysis offers a lead for understanding a specific fluxional process observed in solution.
abstract: A topological analysis of the electron density in the ketene complex (eta(5)-MeC(5)H(4))(CO)(2)Mn[eta(2)-O=C=C((mu-eta(2)-CCPh)Co(2)(CO)(6))Ph] indicates a predisposition for the carbene component of the ketene ligand to bind the neighboring C atom of the adjacent CO ligand.
