Addition reactions of a new ditertiary arsine complex of rhodium(I)

Cationic rhodium(I) complexes. 5. Preparation and reactions of complexes containing tris(o-dimethylarsinophenyl)arsine and 1,1'-bis(dimethylarsino)ferrocene

“…Dihydrogen is readily activated by 4 in solution to yield the dihydrido complex [RhH2(fdma)2]PF6 (13) which from its infrared and 'H NMR spectra (Table II) is formulated as the cis isomer. The appearance of four methyl resonances indicates a static structure at the temperature of measurement (25 °C).…”

Fluorocarbon-bridged ditertiary phosphine derivatives of rhodium carbonyl halides

“…More recently, the diarsine complex [Rh-(vdiars),+Cl-(vdiars = cis-(C,H,),AsCH= CHAs(C,H,),) (19) was shown to readily undergo a series of reactions involving hydrogen halides, halogens, allyl chloride or methyl iodide to give trans adducts. The complex was found to react reversibly with hydrogen under mild conditions.…”
