Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl rhodium dichloride dimer is an organometallic compound with the formula [(C5(CH3)5RhCl2)]2, commonly abbreviated [Cp*RhCl2]2 This dark red air-stable diamagnetic solid is a reagent in organometallic chemistry.[1]

Structure and preparation

The compound has idealized C2h symmetry. Each metal centre is pseudo-octahedral.


The compound is prepared by the reaction of rhodium trichloride trihydrate and pentamethylcyclopentadiene in hot methanol, from which the product precipitates:[1]

2 C5(CH3)5H + 2 RhCl3(H2O)3 → [(C5(CH3)5)RhCl2]2 + 2 HCl + 6 H2O

It was first prepared by the reaction of hydrated rhodium trichloride with hexamethyl Dewar benzene[2]

Synthesis of [Cp*RhCl2]2 using hexamethyl Dewar benzene.

This complex was first prepared from hexamethyl Dewar benzene and RhCl3(H2O)3.[3][4][5] The hydrohalic acid necessary for the ring-contraction rearrangement is generated in situ in methanolic solutions of the rhodium salt, and the second step has been carried out separately, confirming this mechanistic description.[6] The reaction occurs with the formation of 1,1-dimethoxyethane, CH3CH(OCH3)2, and hexamethylbenzene is produced by a side reaction.[5][6]

This rhodium(III) dimer can be reduced with zinc in the presence of CO to produce the rhodium(I) complex [Cp*Rh(CO)2].[7]

Reactions

Reductive carbonylation gives [Cp*Rh(CO)2].[8]

The Rh-μ-Cl bonds are labile and cleave en route to a variety of adducts of the general formula Cp*RhCl2L. Treatment with silver ions in polar coordinating solvents causes precipitation of silver(I) chloride, leaving a solution containing dications of the form [Cp*RhL3]2+ (L = H2O, MeCN).

The chemistry is similar to that of the analog pentamethylcyclopentadienyl iridium dichloride dimer.
