Significant Rh–NH π-bonding in formally 16-electron (η⁵-C₅Me₅)Rh(XNC₆H₄NX′) (X, X′ = H or Ts) is shown by structural features and by DFT calculations; (η⁵-C₅Me₅)Rh(TsNC₆H₄NH) is the fastest transfer hydrogenation catalyst of the three complexes and generates a formate complex under catalytic conditions.
