Insertion of organoindium carbenoids into rhodium halide bonds: revisiting a classic type of transition metal-group 13 metal bond formation.
Insertion of the carbenoid group 13 metal species InCp* (Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) and InC(SiMe3)3 into the Rh-Cl bonds of [[RhCp*Cl2]2] yields the new complexes [Cp*Rh(InCp*)3(Cl)2] 1 and [Cp*Rh(mu2-Cl)2(InC(SiMe3)3)3] 2, respectively, exhibiting novel cage-like intermetallic complexes with In-Cl-In bridges.
