Abstract
Characteristics of the Voronoi–Dirichlet polyhedra (VDP) were used to carry out crystal chemical analysis of 160 compounds containing 308 RhC n or RhC n Rh m coordination polyhedra. The volume of the rhodium VDP virtually does not depend on the coordination number (C.N.), which varies from 4 to 12, in spite of the pronounced variation of the Rh–C (1.72–2.83 A) and Rh–Rh (2.55–2.97 A) bond lengths. It is shown that the VDP parameters allow one to estimate quantitatively the main features of rhodium stereochemistry irrespective of the nature (Rh or C) and the number (n varies from 3 to 12 and m varies from 0 to 6) of atoms in the first coordination sphere.
