Tri iron dodecacarbonyl is organo iron compound with the formula Fe3(CO)12. It is mono nuclear carbonyl. It is an important starting material in preparative iron Carbonyl chemistry. It is dark green solid that sublimes under vaccum. It is soluble in non=-polar organic solvent to give intensely green solutions. Most low nuclearity clusters are pale yellow or orange hot solution of Fe3(CO)12 decomposes to an iron mirror which can be pyrophoric in air. CO stretching frequencies are in portant in characterization of carbonyl-containing compound relatively intense and sensitive to bonding and charge vibration.
