Isolation and structural characterization of an optically active intermediate in the oxidative addition of methyl iodide on a rhodium(i) centre†
Abstract
The optically pure cationic complex (S,SRh)-[Rh(η5-C5H4CH2CH(Ph)PPh2-κP)(η2-CH2CH2)(CH3)][I] is the first example of a key intermediate in the oxidative addition reaction of
