Dicarbon monoxide (C₂O) is a molecule that contains two carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. It is a linear molecule that, because of its simplicity, is of interest in a variety of areas. It is, however, so extremely reactive that it is not encountered in everyday life. It is classified as a carbene, cumulene and an oxocarbon.^[1]

Occurrence

Dicarbon monoxide is a product of the photolysis of carbon suboxide:^[2]^[3]

C₃O₂ → CO + C₂O

It is stable enough to observe reactions with NO and NO₂.^[4]

Called ketenylidene in organometallic chemistry, it is a ligand observed in metal carbonyl clusters, e.g. [OC₂Co₃(CO)₉]⁺. Ketenylidenes are proposed as intermediates in the chain growth mechanism of the Fischer-Tropsch Process, which converts carbon monoxide and hydrogen to hydrocarbon fuels.^[5]

The organophosphorus compound (C₆H₅)₃PCCO (CAS# 15596-07-3) contains the C₂O functionality. Sometimes called Bestmann's Ylide, it is a yellow solid.^[6]
