Abstract: | Dinuclear Silylene Bridged Cyclopentadienylrhodiumbis(ethene) Complexes, Photochemical Reaction with Benzene Derivatives, and Selective Inclusion of Methylcyclopentane into the Crystal Lattice of [Me2Si{3-But-C5H3Rh(C2H4)2}2] By reaction of [{(C2H4)2RhCl}2] with Na2[Me2Si(C5H4)2] or with Li2[Me2Si(3-But-C5H3)2] in THF the dinuclear silylene bridged complexes [Me2Si{C5H4Rh(C2H4)2}2] 1 and [Me2Si{3-But-C5H3Rh(C2H4)2}2] 2 , respectively, were synthesized. Due to the asymmetric substitution of the five-membered rings and their hindered rotation around the Si? C axes, 2 is formed as three isomers. The X-ray structure analysis of 2 obtained from hexane reveals the selective inclusion of methylcyclopentane, the content of which in the solvent is about 17%, into the crystal lattice. UV irradiation of 1 in hexane in the presence of benzene causes elimination of the ethene ligands yielding the μ-η3:η3 benzene complex [Me2Si(C5H4Rh2)2C6H6] which cannot be separated from unreacted 1 . However, separation is possible in case of the hexamethylbenzene compound 4 analogous with 3 . |
