Abstract
Coordination of [Rh-I(ED)Cl](2) and [Rh-I(Chel)(ED)](+) complexes (ED = 1,5 -hexadiene; Chel = 2,2'-bipyridine and 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine) in po ly(pyrrole-2,2'-bipyridine) films has been investigated by cyclic voltammet ry in CH3CN electrolyte, and by FT-IR. In any case, the formation of stable poly[Rh(Chel)(ED)](+) films contrasts to that observed in the presence of an excess of Chel in acetonitrile, where the reaction of rhodium(I) complex es containing the labile ED ligand leads to [Rh(Chel)(2)](+) species.
