  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>During the past 10 years iron‐catalyzed reactions have become established in the field of organic synthesis. For example, the complex anion [Fe(CO)<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>(NO)]<jats:sup>−</jats:sup>, which was originally described by Hogsed and Hieber, shows catalytic activity in various organic reactions. This anion is commonly regarded as being isoelectronic with [Fe(CO)<jats:sub>4</jats:sub>]<jats:sup>2−</jats:sup>, which, however, shows poor catalytic activity. The spectroscopic and quantum chemical investigations presented herein reveal that the complex ferrate [Fe(CO)<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>(NO)]<jats:sup>−</jats:sup> cannot be regarded as a Fe<jats:sup>−II</jats:sup> species, but rather is predominantly a Fe<jats:sup>0</jats:sup> species, in which the metal is covalently bonded to NO<jats:sup>−</jats:sup> by two π‐bonds. A metal–N σ‐bond is not observed.</jats:p>
