Tropad: a new ligand for the synthesis of water-stable paramagnetic [16+1]-electron rhodium and iridium complexes.
The new tetradentate ligand 1,4-bis(5 H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-yl)-1,4-diazabuta-1,3-diene ((H)tropdad) allows the syntheses of the 16-electron cationic rhodium complexes [M((H)tropdad)](O(3)SCF(3)) (M=Rh, Ir). The structure of the rhodium complex was determined by X-ray analysis and points to a...
