Formation of a bridging-imido d6 rhodium compound by nitrene capture. insertion and cycloaddition reactions.
The first d (6) rhodium imido complex, [{(C 5Me 5)Rh(mu-NSO 2C 6H 4Me- p)} 2] ( 2), has been obtained from the reaction of [(C 5Me 5)Rh(C 2H 4) 2] with chloramine-T. Carbon monoxide inserts into the N-Rh bonds in 2 to give the dinuclear ureylene complex [(C 5Me 5)Rh(mu-{(Ts) N-CO-N(Ts)}Rh(CO)(C 5Me 5)], while the azide C 6F 5N 3 adds to 2 to give the mononuclear tetrazene complex [(C 5Me 5)Rh{( p-MeC 6H 4SO 2)N 4(C 6F 5)}].
