Abstract
The reactions of two equivalents of the ligands POT or POZ with one equivalent of the rhodium complex [Rh(μ-Cl)(CO) 2] 2 afford the complexes [(POT)Rh(CO)Cl] ( 1) and [(POZ)Rh(CO)Cl] ( 2), respectively. The crystal structures of both complexes have been determined showing the rhodium centers to be into slightly distorted square planar environments. Preliminary screening of the catalytic systems POT/Rh and POZ/Rh in the asymmetric hydroformylation of styrene has been carried out.
