Abstract
Three new rhodium(I) compounds containing optically active trans-cyclooctene ( trans-C 8H 14) were prepared: [RhL {(+) D- trans-C 8H 14} 2] (L = acetylacetonate and 1,3-diphenyl-1,3-propanedionate) and [Rh 2Cl 2{(+) D- trans-C 8H 14} 4]. The absorption and circular dichroism spectra were measured and compared with those of [Pt 2Cl 4{(-) D- trans-C 8H 14} 2]. The absolute configuration of coordinated alkenes is correlated with the CD spectra in the wave number regions, (20–30) x 10 3 cm -1 and 40 x 10 3 cm -1. In the former range the CD sign is the reverse of that of platinum(II)—alkene complexes, but in the latter region the CD signs are equal.
