A pyrimidine thiolate Rh(i) complex: structure, bonding and one-dimensional interactions in solid and in solution
Abstract
The reaction of [Rh(µ-Cl)(COD)]2 with 4,6-dimethyl-pyrimidinethiolate (Me2-pymt) and subsequent substitution of COD by CO yields [Rh(Me2-pymt)(CO)2]. The stacking pattern found in this compound is in contradiction with previously studied comparable square-planar complexes of type d8-[M(chelate)(monodentate)2] in which each
