Abstract
The dimeric rhodium(0) complex [(CH3C(CH2PPh2)3)2Rh2(μ-CO)2] (1), undergoes oxidative-addition reactions with H2 and H+, with metalmetal bond breaking, to form a monomeric and a dinuclear hydride derivative, respectively. The oxidation of 1 by electrochemistry or chemical agents affords the paramagnetic cation [(CH3C(CH2PPh2)3)2Rh2(μ-CO)2]+. The structure of this latter, which has been determined by X-ray diffraction, closely resembles that of the uncharged species 1, but with a shorter RhRh bond distance. © 1988.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
