Deactivation of a [PPN][Rh(CO)4]-based catalytic system [PPN+ = (PPh3)2N+]. The first decomposition reaction of PPN+ and the formation of [Rh10P(CO)22]3−

Abstract

Decomposition of [PPN][Rh(CO)4] [PPN+ = (PPh3)2N+] at 200 °C under CO pressure affords [Rh10P(CO)22]3−, featuring the first decomposition reaction of PPN+ and explaining the reason for the deactivation of [PPN][Rh(CO)4]-based catalytic systems.
