title: Reversible dioxygen binding on asymmetric dinuclear rhodium centres.
abstract: Electron-deficient dinuclear rhodium complexes [Rh2Cl2(μ-dpmppp)(RNC)] (1), with the linear tetraphosphine ligand dpmppp, showed reversible binding of molecular oxygen to form asymmetric dirhodium η(2)-peroxo complexes [Rh2Cl2(O2)(μ-dpmppp)(RNC)] (2) stabilized by a Rh→Rh dative bond.
