Notes. Synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of [Rh(NO)(PPh3)2(p-MeC6H4NNNC6H4Me-p)][BF4]·CH2Cl2
Abstract
The reaction of [Rh(NO)(NCMe)2(PPh3)2][BF4]2 with Na[RNNNR](R =p-tolyl) in tetrahydrofuran yields [Rh(NO)(PPh3)2(RNNNR)][BF4], X-ray diffraction studies on which have revealed a trigonal-bipyramidal structure with a linear nitrosyl [Rh–N–O 177.5(6)°] and chelating triazenide ligand in the equatorial positions.
