Abstract
Extended labeling experiments have shown that formation of rhodium per oxocarbonate from CO2 and [RhCl(eta(2)-O-2)(P)(3)] (P is PEt(2)Ph or P EtPh(2)) proceeds through O-O bond cleavage and CO2 insertion. O-trans fer to ancillary phosphine ligand to give R(3)P=O selectively (>85%) i nvolves the Ph-linked O atom of the peroxo group of RhCl(CO4)(P)(3).
