title: {2-[Bis(2,4-di-tert-butyl-phen-oxy)phosphan-yloxy-κP]-3,5-di-tert-butyl-phenyl-κC}[(1,2,5,6-η)-cyclo-octa-1,5-diene]rhodium(I) toluene monosolvate.
abstract: The reaction of (η(3)-all-yl)[(1,2,5,6-η)-cyclo-octa-1,5-diene]rhodium(I) with tris-(2,4-di-tert-butyl-phen-yl)phosphite in toluene produces the title compound, [Rh(C(42)H(62)O(3)P)(C(8)H(12))]·C(7)H(8), by spontaneous metallation at one of the nonsubstituted phenyl ortho-C atoms of the phosphite mol-ecule. The coordination geometry at the Rh(I) ion is distorted square-planar. The toluene solvent mol-ecule is disordered over two different orientations, with site-occupation factors of 0.810 (2) and 0.190 (2).
