Chloro-cis-dihydro-mer-tris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium(III) dichloromethane hemisolvate

W. Clegg, M. R. J. Elsegood, N. C. Norman and N. L. Pickett

Abstract: The title complex, [RhClH₂(C₁₈H₁₅P)₃]·0.5CH₂Cl₂, has distorted octahedral coordination of Rh as a consequence of the bulk of the phosphine ligands and the relatively small size of hydride ligands; the latter were not directly located in the crystallographic analysis. The dichloromethane solvent molecule is disordered.
