Abstract
The title compound, [RhCl(C22H34OP)2(CO)], can be described as one of a few RhI Vaska-type complexes containing a (2-naphthyloxy)diphenylphosphine ligand and has a square-planar geometry about the rhodium(I) metal centre, which lies on an inversion centre, so that the carbonyl and chloro ligands are disordered. The most important bond lengths and angle include Rh—P = 2.305 (1) Å, Rh—Cl = (trans CO) = 2.374 (2) Å, Rh—C (carbonyl) = 1.818 (6) Å and Rh—C—O = 178.1 (10)°. A weak π–π intermolecular stacking is observed, with an interplanar distance of 3.377 (2) Å.
