<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>It's easy to C</bold>: The reaction of [Re(CO)₂(CS)(η‐C₅H₅)] with [Re(CO)₂(thf)(η‐C₅H₅)] affords the disulfur complex [Re(CO)₂(η²‐S₂)(η‐C₅H₅)] and the remarkably simple μ‐carbido complex [(μ‐C){Re(CO)₂(η‐C₅H₅)}₂], which has been structurally characterized and computationally investigated (see picture; black C, white H, red O, green Re).<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg1v8chz63" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
