Which heteroleptic complexes contain an explicit metal-to-ligand π-back-bonding acceptor?

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
A, B, D
Solution:

CO in A/B and the coordinated alkene in D have π* acceptor orbitals. C has no such classical π-acid ligand. All examples are heteroleptic because more than one ligand type is present.
