Description
Summary:The title compound, trans-[RhCl(C18H12Cl3P)2(CO)]·C3H6O, contains an Rh(I) atom in a distorted square-planar coordination with a P—Rh—P angle of 175.27 (2)° and Rh—P bond lengths of 2.3127 (4) and 2.3219 (4) Å. The rhodium complexes link each other through weak intermolecular contacts between the acetone methyl groups and the carbonyl O atom. Interactions between the acetone solvent molecule and the Cl—Rh unit results in a reduced P—Rh—Cl angle of 86.675 (15)°.
