Abstract
The coordinational preference of tri(2-pyridyl)methanol to rhodium(III ) was investigated. Two different methods were used for the preparatio n of complexes. Starting either from Rh(I) in chloroform or from Rh(II I) led to the same final complex, in which the ligand coordinates to t he rhodium ion in a symmetrical N,N',N '' fashion, although, in the la tter case, the intermediate formation of an unsymmetrical isomer was o bserved.
