Reaction of bis(phosphine)(hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borato)rhodium(I) with phenylacetylene, p-nitrobenzaldehyde, and triphenyltin hydride: structures of [Rh(Tp)(PPh(3))(2)], [Rh(Tp)(H)(C(2)Ph)(P(4-C(6)H(4)F)(3))], [Rh(Tp)(H)(COC(6)H(4)-4-NO(2))(PPh(3))], and [Rh(Tp)(H)(SnPh(3))(PPh(3))].
The complexes [Rh(Tp)(PPh(3))(2)] (1a) and [Rh(Tp)(P(4-C(6)H(4)F)(3))(2)] (1b) combine with PhC(2)H, 4-NO(2)-C(6)H(4)CHO and Ph(3)SnH to give [Rh(Tp)(H)(C(2)Ph)(PR(3))] (R = Ph, 2a; R = 4-C(6)H(4)F, 2b), [Rh(Tp)(H)(COC(6)H(4)-4-NO(2))(PR(3))] (R = Ph, 3a), and [Rh(Tp)(H)(SnPh(3))(PR(3))] (R = Ph, 4a; R = 4-C(6)H(4)F, 4b) in moderate to good yield. Complexes 1a, 2b, 3a, and 4a have been structurally characterized. In 1a the Tp ligand is bidentate, in 2b, 3a, and 4a it is tridentate. Crystal data for 1a: space group P2(1)/c; a = 11.9664(19), b = 21.355(3), c = 20.685(3) A; beta = 112.576(7) degrees; V = 4880.8(12) A(3); Z = 4; R = 0.0441. Data for 2b: space group P(-)1; a = 10.130(3), b = 12.869(4), c = 17.038(5) A; alpha = 78.641(6), beta = 76.040(5), gamma = 81.210(6) degrees; V = 2100.3(11) A(3); Z = 2; R = 0.0493. Data for 3a: space group P(-)1; a = 10.0073(11), b = 10.5116(12), c = 19.874(2) A; alpha = 83.728(2), beta = 88.759(2), gamma = 65.756(2) degrees; V =1894.2(4) A(3); Z = 2; R = 0.0253. Data for 4a: space group P2(1)/c; a = 15.545(2), b = 18.110(2), c = 17.810(2) A; beta = 95.094(3) degrees; V = 4994.1(10) A(3); Z = 4; R = 0.0256. NMR data ((1)H, (31)P, (103)Rh, (119)Sn) are also reported.
