Enantio- and diastereocontrol in intermolecular cyclopropanation reaction of styrene catalyzed by dirhodium(II) complexes with bulky ortho-metalated …
2004
Enantiomerically pure dirhodium(II) complexes with ortho-metalated p-substituted aryl phosphines have been shown to be enantio- and diastereoselective in the cyclopropanation of styrene by ethyl diazoacetate. Enantioselectivities up to 91% and diastereoselectivities up to 90% are observed for ethyl cis-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate.

Synthesis and crystal structure of {Rh2(O2CCH3)4·P(o-CH3OH6H4)Ph2}2. A novel dirhodium(II) monoadduct with intermolecular μ-oxo interactions
1997
Abstract We have investigated the reaction of dirhodium tetraacetate with the phosphine P( o -CH 3 OH 6 H 4 )Ph 2 (P) under different experimental conditions. From these reactions we have been able to isolate the dirhodium tetraacetate phosphine mono-adduct. The crystal structure shows that in the solid state this compound forms a centrosymmetric dimer of the dimer, {Rh 2 (O 2 CCH 3 ) 4 ·P(0-CH 3 OC 6 H 4 )Ph 2 } 2 , in which we oxygen atom from one acetate group in one Rh 2 (O 2 CCH 3 ) 4 ·P unit is axially coordinating one Rh atom on another Rh 2 (O 2 CCH 3 ) 4 · P unit (Rh⋯) 2.347(3) A intermolecular versus Rh⋯O 2.455(3) A intermolecular), and vice versa. The RhRh bond distance is 2.414…
Redox Materials by the Covalent Entrapment of Redox-Active Dirhodium(II,II) Species in a Siloxane Network
2004
Hydrolysis and polycondensation of the coupling agent (aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APS), axially coordinated to the redox-active complex [Rh 2 (form) 2 (CH 3 COO) 2 -(APS) 2 ], lead to the insertion of redox-active inorganic microdomains into a siloxane network; the new polymers undergo cyclic redox reactions indicating that dirhodium(II,II) centres retain their redox activity even when incorporated into siloxane networks.
