Abstract
We investigate the Schrock–Osborn catalyst, [Rh(COD)(PPh3)2][PF6], in a series of ionic liquids by XPS. The electronic environment of the rhodium centre is demonstrated. The subtle change of the electronic environment of the rhodium centre due to the catalyst-ionic liquids interaction is revealed based upon Rh 3d binding energy. It suggests that the anion of ionic liquids can have significant impact on the electronic environment of the rhodium centre.
