N2 - In pentacarbonyl(4-phenylpyridine)tungsten(0), [W(C11H9N)-(CO)5], the molecules have mm site symmetry and the pyridine ligand, with m symmetry, is completely planar. In pentacarbonyl(2-phenylpyridine)chromium(0), [Cr(C11H9N)-(CO)5], the molecules are in general positions and the phenyl and pyridine rings of the ligand are twisted by 67.7 (3)° with respect to one another by rotation about the C-C bond joining them. In both compounds, the axial M-Ccarbonyl bond trans to the M-Nligand bond is significantly shorter than the equatorial M-Ccarbonyl bonds.
