Abstract

The synthesis of novel N-acetyl-N, N-dipyrid-2-yl complexes of RhI and IrI, ie [RhCl (CH3CONPy2)(COD)](1) and [IrCl (CH3CONPy2)(COD)](2), respectively, is described. Upon prolonged treatment in CH2Cl2 at room temperature, complex 1 is transformed into a cationic Rh-complex, ie [Rh (CH3CONPy2)(COD)+ RhCl2 (COD)−](1a). Compound 1a crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c, complex 2 crystallizes in the triclinic ...
