Abstract
In this work, the reaction of the 16-electron species [Rh(eta(3)-C8H13 )(eta(5)-C(2)B(9)H(9)Me(2))] with PPh(3) was investigated and the prod uct, xo-nido-Rh(PPh(3))(2)(eta(5)-C(2)B(9)H(10)Me(2))], which is in an equilibrium with the close analogue was characterized by P-31 {H-1}, H-1, C-13 and B-11 NMR spectroscopy. A mechanism for the complex forma tion is suggested which is related to,the previously reported reaction s between the 16-electron complex and PR(3) (R = Me and Et) ligands.
