Deskripsi

In the title complex, [Rh(C6H16P2)2][RhCl2(C8H12)], the asymmetric unit contains two [Rh(dmpe)2] [dmpe = 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane] half-cations, lying on inversion centers, and an [RhCl2(cod)]− (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) anion, wherein Rh is coordinated by two chloride ligands and two olefinic π-bonds of the cyclooctadiene ligand. The Rh atoms in the cations and anion exhibit square-planar coordination and are separated without any unusual interactions.
