Synthesis and X-ray structures of water-soluble tris(hydroxymethyl)phosphine complexes of rhodium(I).
The water-soluble Rh(I)-THP complexes: RhCl(1,5-cod)(THP) (), [Rh(1,5-cod)(THP)(2)]Cl (), RhCl(THP)(4) (), and trans-RhCl(CO)(THP)(2) () have been synthesized and characterized, where THP = P(CH(2)OH)(3); - are the first potentially useful entries into Rh(I)-THP chemistry, while and are the first structurally characterized Rh(I)-THP complexes.
