Bonding in Metal Carbonyls: The carbon atom in carbon monoxide has a lone pair of electrons that can be used to form a sigma bondwith a metal. Because carbon monoxide has low-lying orbitals, it can accept electrons back fromthe metal and further strengthen the bonding between the metaland the carbon monoxide ligand.
