One electron organozinc ligands in metal rich molecules by Ga/Zn exchange: from Cp*Rh(GaCp*)2 to Cp*Rh(ZnR)4 units

Abstract

Two unusual compounds, [{Cp*Rh(ZnCp*)2(ZnMe)(ZnCl)}2] (1) and [Cp*2Rh][(Cp*Rh)6Zn18Cl126-Cl)] (2), both bearing closed shell 18-electron square pyramidal Cp*RhZn4 building units were obtained by combined Ga/Zn, Me/Cp* and Me/Cl exchange upon treatment of [Cp*Rh(GaCp*)2(GaCl2Cp*)] with ZnMe2 (Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl).
