Abstract
The synthesis of four rhodium(II) paddlewheel complexes bearing axial aromatic amines and coumarin ligands, with formula [Rh2(OAc)4(L)2] (L = NH2Mesityl (1), NH2Dip (2), NH2Couma (3), coumarin (4)), prompted by microwave irradiation, was carried out successfully. All of the complexes were characterized by the melting point, elemental analysis, NMR, IR, and UV/Visible spectroscopy. Additionally, the structure of complexes 1-2 and 4 was corroborated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Cyclic voltammetry, ESI-MS, and tandem MS analyses were carried out in compound 1 for gaining further insight into its stability. Finally, a DFT study shows that complexes 1–4 are the thermodynamic products, having as intermediates complexes 1′–4′ which, under our experimental conditions, cannot be isolated.
