Density functional theory reveals multiple pathways for intramolecular hydride transfer in the cyclopentadienyl and indenyl species (eta(5)-C5H5)Fe(CO)(3)H and (eta(5)-C9H7)Fe(CO)(3)H. The ability of the indenyl ligand to undergo facile eta(5)- to eta(3)-'ring slippage' stabilises the isomer where the hydride is bonded directly to the metal, which...
