Abstract: Molecules of the title compound, [Rh(C₉H₆NO){(C₁₄H₂₁O)₃P}(CO)]·0.5(CH₃)₂CO, where (C₉H₆NO) = 8-hydroxyquinolinato and {(C₁₄H₂₁O)₃P} = tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphite, pack in a tail-to-tail fashion with an intermolecular quinoline ligand-to-ligand -stacking distance of 3.312 (1) Å. The effective cone angle (_E) for the phosphite ligand is 192°. The bidentate oxine ligand has a bite angle of 81.00 (8)° and the Rh-P bond length is 2.1819 (6) Å.
