Abstract

Reaction of RhCl(CO)22 with a phosphine/thioether/borane ligand (TXPB) gave Rh(-Cl)(CO)(TXPB) (1), a rare example of a complex containing a M-Cl-BR3bridging interaction. Reaction of 1with KCpFe(CO)2 gave (TXPB)Rh(-CO)2Fe(CO)Cp (2), which contains an unprecedented 3-interaction between rhodium and the B-Cipso-Corthounit of a triarylborane. DFT calculations suggest a bonding description intermediate between that expected for an isolated borane/alkene complex and a fully delocalized allyl-like complex.
