The metal center is electron withdrawing. This effect is enhanced if the metal is also attached to a carbonyl. Electron poor metals do not back bond well to the carbonyl. The more electron withdrawing the metal is, the more triple bond character the CO ligand has. This gives the ligand a higher force

In this example the ring system can be thought of as analogous to 1,3-butadiene. Following the Green–Davies–Mingos rules, since butadiene is an open π-ligand of even hapticity, nucleophilic attack will occur at one of the terminal positions of the π-system. This occurs because the LUMO of butadiene

Nucleophiles preferentially add to even-hapticity polyene ligands at a terminus. Nucleophiles add to odd-hapticity acyclic polyene ligands at a terminal position if the metal is highly electrophilic, otherwise they add at an internal site.

The following figure shows a ligated metal attached to a carbonyl group. This group has a partial positive charge and therefore is susceptible to nucleophilic attack. If the ligand represented by L

Nucleophilic addition to π ligands can be used in synthesis. One example of this is to make cyclic metal compounds. Nucleophiles add to the center of the π ligand and produces a metallobutane.

In this case the attack will occur on the carbon with both R groups attached to it since that is the more substituted position.

Nucleophilic addition does not occur if kCO* (the effective force constant for the CO ligand) is below a threshold value

If sigma donating ligands are present they pump electrons into the ligand and attack occurs at the internal position.
