| Abstract: |
Rhodium(I) complexes bearing amide-functionalised NHC ligands were synthesized in high yields through various synthetic routes and from different metal precursors, showing the versatility of such systems. By changing the ancillary ligands on the rhodium from cyclooctadiene to carbonyls the coordination behaviour of the NHC-amide ligand could be influenced. When a more basic precursor was employed for complexation, bidentate behaviour with the amide in an anionic mode was observed. All reported complexes are synthesized in high yields and under ambient conditions, which shows their robustness. The monodentate rhodium(I) biscarbonyl NHC complexes were shown to be able to activate iodomethane. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
