description

Abstract From the reaction of [Rh2(O2CCH3)4(MeOH)2] in hot acetic acid with P(o-ClC6H4)Ph2, two monometallated compounds [Rh2(O2CCH3)3(C6H4)P(o-ClC6H4)Ph(HO2CCH3)2] (1), already described, and [Rh2(O2CCH3)3{(ClC6H3)PPh2}(OH2)2] have been isolated. The new compound has been characterized by an X-ray study. It crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1. It contains three acetate groups bridging a Rh24+ unit that has a Rh-Rh bond distance of 2.426(1) A; the fourth bridging ligand is derived from one P(o-ClC6H4)Ph2 metallated in the halogenated ring. The two water molecules occupy the axial coordination sites.
