Tungsten hexacarbonyl | W(CO)6 | 4N
Tungsten hexacarbonyl catalyze epoxidation, cycloaddition, isomerization and other organic reactions. In the field of thin film deposition, tungsten hexacarbonyl deposits tungsten film, which is applied to absorb sunlight, used as lateral photovoltaic effect of photoelectric detector. Unlike WF6, depositing tungsten hexacarbonyl produce no hydrogen fluoride, protecting the substrate and equipment from corrosion.
