Abstract
Starting from the binuclear complex [RhCl(NBD)]2 (NBD = 2,5-norbornadiene) in the presence of the phosphines L = PMe3, PMe2Ph, PMePh2, PEt3, PEt2Ph, PEtPh2, or P(n-butyl)3, various mononuclear dihydrides of the type Rh(H)2CIL3, i.e., those of the homogeneous hydrogenation catalysts RhCIL3, have been obtained upon addition of parahydrogen, and their 1H NMR spectra have been investigated using parahydrogen-induced polarization (PHIP). Furthermore, the two binuclear complexes (H)(Cl)Rh(PMe3)2(mu-Cl)(mu-H)Rh(PMe3) and (H)(Cl)Rh(PMe2Ph)2(mu-Cl)(mu-H)Rh(PMe2Ph) have been detected and characterized by means of this in situ NMR method. Analogous complexes with trifluoroacetate instead of chloride, i.e., Rh(H)2(CF3COO)L3, have been generated in situ starting from Rh(NBD)(acac) in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid in combination with the phosphines L = PPh3, PEt2Ph, PEt3, and P(n-butyl)3, and their 1H NMR parameters have been determined.
