Reaction of $\left[\mathrm{Mn}_{2}(\mathrm{CO})_{10}\right]$, with $\mathrm{I}_{2}$, results in A without loss of CO. Compound A, on heating of $120^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ loses a CO ligand to give B , which does not have a $\mathrm{Mn}-\mathrm{Mn}$ bond. Compound B reacts with pyridine to give 2 equivalents of C . Compounds $\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{B}$ and C from the following respectively, are (I)(II)(III)(IV)(V)
