title: Carbon-yl{3,3'-di-tert-butyl-5,5'-dimeth-oxy-2,2'-bis-[(4,4,5,5-tetra-methyl-1,3,2-dioxaphospho-lan-2-yl)-oxy]biphenyl-κ(2) P,P'}hydrido(triphenyl-phosphane-κP)rhodium(I) diethyl ether tris-olvate.
abstract: In the title compound, [RhH(C74H68O8P2)(C18H15P)(CO)]·3C4H10O, the CHP3 coordination set at the Rh(I) ion is arranged in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry with the P atoms adopting equatorial coordination sites and the C atom of the carbonyl ligand as well as the H atom adopting the axial sites. The asymmetric unit contains two very similar mol-ecules of the rhodium complex, two half-occupied diethyl ether mol-ecules and further diethyl ether solvent mol-ecules which could not be modelled successfully. Therefore contributions of the latter were removed from the diffraction data using the SQUEEZE procedure in PLATON [Spek (2009 ▶). Acta Cryst. D65, 148-155].
