title: (N-Benzoyl-N'-phenyl-thio-urea-κS)chlorido(η-1,5-cyclo-octa-diene)rhodium(I).
abstract: The title compound, [RhCl(C(8)H(12))(C(14)H(12)N(2)OS)], is a rhodium(I) derivative with a functionalized thio-urea ligand. Despite the presence of several heteroatoms, the thio-urea ligand coordinates only in a monodentate fashion via the S atom. The geometry of the coordination sphere is approximately square planar about the Rh(I) atom, with two bonds to the π-electrons of the 1,5-cyclo-octa-diene ligand, one bond to the Cl(-) ligand and one bond to the S atom of the thio-urea ligand. The mol-ecular structure is stabilized by intra-molecular N-H⋯O and N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding. Inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions lead to the formation of layers extending parallel to (011).
