[Rh{NC5H3-2,6-((CH2PBu2)-Bu-t)(2)}(PCY3)][BAr4F]: A Latent Low-Coordinate Rhodium(I) PNP Pincer Compound

An expedient new route to the cationic [(PNPtBu)Rh(L)] + metal fragments (PNPtBu = κ3-NC 5H3-2,6-(CH2P tBu2) 2; L = CO, acetone, ethene, MeCN, N2) by the synthesis of, then substitution of PCy3 in, [(PNPtBu)Rh(PCy 3)][BArF4] is reported. This synthetic route also allows for the synthesis of the new...
