-electron rule. A quick diagnostic for this process is an anomalously low ligand functional stretching frequency on an infrared spectrum. The volatility of nickel tetracarbonyl is explained by this process having occurred in it in agreement with the aforementioned (*) Dewar-Chatt-Duncanson model. For 10 points, name this chemical phenomenon in which electrons from an atomic orbital of the central atom of a coordination complex delocalize to fill an anti-bonding pi orbital.
