"Pincer" N-heterocyclic carbene complexes of rhodium functionalised with pyridyl- and bipyridyl donors
"Pincer" N-heterocyclic carbene complexes of rhodium functionalised with pyridyl- and bipyridyl donors
The “pincer”-type carbene complexes Rh(C–N–C)Cl and
Rh(C–N–N)Cl [C–N–C = 3,3!-diaryl-1,1!-pyridine-2,6-diylbis-
(imidazol-2-ylidene), C–N–N = 1-aryl-3-(2,2!-bipyridin-6-yl)-
imidazol-2-ylidene] have been prepared and characterised
by spectroscopic and diffraction methods. They bind CO to
give cationic complexes but are inert to H2. Both oxidatively add CH2Cl2 to give octahedral RhIII complexes. Theoretical
calculations provide insight into the bonding of the Rh(C–N–
C)Cl and Rh(C–N–N)Cl complexes.

Abstract
The “pincer”-type carbene complexes Rh(C–N–C)Cl and
Rh(C–N–N)Cl [C–N–C = 3,3!-diaryl-1,1!-pyridine-2,6-diylbis-
(imidazol-2-ylidene), C–N–N = 1-aryl-3-(2,2!-bipyridin-6-yl)-
imidazol-2-ylidene] have been prepared and characterised
by spectroscopic and diffraction methods. They bind CO to
give cationic complexes but are inert to H2. Both oxidatively add CH2Cl2 to give octahedral RhIII complexes. Theoretical
calculations provide insight into the bonding of the Rh(C–N–
C)Cl and Rh(C–N–N)Cl complexes.
