Abstract The seventh row of the periodic table of the elements has been completed with the discovery of the five heaviest elements from flerovium (Fl, Z = 114) through oganesson (Og, Z = 118)1. Chemical properties of the superheavy elements (SHE, Z ≥ 104) are unique owing to the strong influence of relativistic effects on their valence electron shells2. The stability of the metal–ligand bonding in carbonyl complexes is a property that is predicted to be affected by such effects3,4.
