Dicarbonyldi-μ-chloro-cis,cis-η4-1,5-cyclooctadienedirhodium(I)
Abstract
The title compound, dicarbonyl-1κ2C-di-μ-chloro-1:2κ4Cl-[cis,cis-2(η4)-1,5-cyclooctadiene]dirhodium(I), [Rh2Cl2(C8H12)(CO)2], consists of a dichloro-bridged dimer of rhodium, with a non-bonded Rh⃛Rh distance of 3.284 (2) Å. One Rh atom is coordinated to two carbonyl ligands, while the other Rh atom is coordinated to the cyclooctadiene moiety.
