[(1,2,5,6-η)-Cycloocta-1,5-diene](1-ethyl-3-isopropyl-1,3-imidazol-2-ylidene)(triphenylphosphane)rhodium(I) tetrafluoridoborate

A new N-heterocyclic cationic rhodium(I) complex with a tetrafluoridoborate counter-anion, [Rh(C8H14N2)(C8H12)(C18H15P)]BF4, has been prepared and structurally characterized. The cationic complex exhibits a distorted square-planar environment around the rhodium(I) ion. Two connections are made from...

description A new N-heterocyclic cationic rhodium(I) complex with a tetrafluoridoborate counter-anion, [Rh(C8H14N2)(C8H12)(C18H15P)]BF4, has been prepared and structurally characterized. The cationic complex exhibits a distorted square-planar environment around the rhodium(I) ion. Two connections are made from rhodium(I) to the carbon atom of an N-heterocylic carbene ligand and to the phosphorus atom of a triphenylphosphane ligand. The remaining two coordination sites are made via a bidentate interaction from the two olefinic bonds of cyclooctadiene to the rhodium(I) ion. The compound includes an out-sphere tetrafluoridoborate counter-anion. Within the crystal of the compound exist several weak intermolecular C—H...F interactions.
