Addition of $\mathrm{NaBH_4}$ to $\mathrm{[(\eta^{5}\text{-}Cp)Fe(\eta^{6}\text{-}C_6H_6)]^{+}}$ will give
(a)$\mathrm{[(\eta^{5}\text{-}Cp)Fe(H)_2]}$
(b)$\mathrm{[(\eta^{5}\text{-}Cp)\,Fe(H)(\,\eta^{6}\text{-}C_6H_6)]}$
(c)$\mathrm{[(\eta^{5}\text{-}Cp)\,Fe(\eta^{6}\text{-}C_6H_6)]}$
(d)$\mathrm{[(\eta^{5}\text{-}Cp)\,Fe(\eta^{6}\text{-}C_6H_7)]}$
Answer
Answer (as printed): D
Explanation
$[(\eta^5\text{-}\mathrm{Cp})\mathrm{Fe}(\eta^6\text{-}\mathrm{C_6H_6})]^{+}$
