| Abstract: | A carbonate‐bridged rhodium(III) dimeric complex of formula μ‐CO3‐(ppy)2Rh]2, (ppy = 2‐phenylpyridine) was synthesized and characterized by IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy as well as X‐ray diffraction. The bridging carbonate ion presumably originates from the capture of CO2 in air deduced on a series of control experiments, which may have valuable implications for the study of fixation of CO2. The luminescent and thermal properties of this complex were also investigated. |
