Abstract: The square-planar RhI complex, [Rh(trop)(PFcPh2)(CO)] (tropH = 2-hydroxy-2,4,6-cycloheptatrienone, C7H6O2, and PFcPh2 = ferrocenyldiphenylphosphine, C22H19FeP), contains a five-membered chelate ring. The most important bond lengths and angles include Rh-O 2.0838 (14) Å (trans to P) and Rh-O 2.0487 (14) Å (trans to CO), Rh-P 2.2395 (5) Å, Rh-C 1.803 (2) Å, and O-Rh-O 77.56 (6)° and P-Rh-C 89.73 (7)°.
