The pair of metal carbonyl complexes that are isoelectronic is

  • Ni(CO)4 and V(CO)6

  • [Cr(CO)6] and V(CO)6

  • [Fe(CO)4]- and Cr(CO)6

  • [Co(CO)4]- and Ni(CO)4


D.

[Co(CO)4]- and Ni(CO)4

As Co(d7) and Ni(d8) elements differ by one electron and both contain four (CO) groups thus, [Co(CO)4]- and [Ni(CO)4] have same number of electrons.

Hence, both are isoelectronic.
