For the complex with no uncoordinated atoms, it will decompose under the co
ndition of heating because of the drop of the terminal carbonyl of the rhod
ium atom. However, the complexes that we synthesized can form stable tetrad
entate complexes in the condition of heating and no protection of CO by int
ramolecular substitution reaction, that is uncoordinated oxygen atoms subst
itute the two terminal carbonyls of the rhodium atom. Because this reaction
is reversible, the complex can recover to cis-dicarbonyl rhodium complex a
fter dealing with CO. Thus the decomposing of the complex for the drop of t
he terminal carbonyl if avoided and its stability is enhanced. So the struc
ture and the reversible intramolecular substitution reaction of the complex
studied here provide referable information to increasing the catalyst stab
ility used in the carbonylation of methanol to acetic acid, especially the
catalyst stability while separating it from solution shea of protection of
CO, including design of this kind of the catalyst structure.
