Abstract
Abstract Synthetic procedures are described that allow access to a number of new Rh(III) complexes with the tetradentate bis-amide ligand N,N'-bis(2'-pyridinecarboxamide)-1,8-naphthalene (LH2). These complexes have the formulae Rh(LH2)Cl3, Na[RhLX2] • H2O (X = Cl, CN) and [RhLA2]ClO4 (A = pyridine, 1-methylbenzotriazole). The compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, conductivity measurements, X-ray powder patterns, spectroscopic (IR, UV/VIS, 1H NMR) studies and electrochemical methods. The neutral amide behaves as a bis-bidentate ligand in the oligomeric or polymeric, octahedral complex Rh(LH2,)Cl3. Monomeric, trans octahedral structures are assigned for the complexes of L2− in the solid state; the doubly deprotonated ligand acts as a tetradentate chelating agent with the four nitrogens as ligating atoms.
