(Acetylacetonato)carbonyl(dicyclohexylphenylphosphine)rhodium(I)

A. Brink, A. Roodt and H. G. Visser

Abstract: In the title complex, [Rh(acac)(CO)(PCy2Ph)] (acac = acetylacetonate, Cy = cyclohexyl) or [Rh(C5H7O2)(CO)(C18H27P)], the Rh atom is coordinated by one P [Rh-P = 2.2424 (9) Å], two O [Rh-O = 2.0783 (17) and 2.0411 (18) Å] and one C [Rh-C = 1.797 (3) Å] atoms in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry. The bite angle O-Rh-O is 88.20 (6)° and the calculated effective cone angle ([theta]E) for the dicyclohexylphenyl phosphine is 163°.
