Crystal structure of chlorido(2-{1-[2-(4-chlorophenyl)hydrazin-1-ylidene-κN]ethyl}pyridine-κN)(η5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)rhodium(III) chloride

The cation of the title compound, [Rh(η5-C5Me5)Cl(C13H12ClN3)]Cl, adopts a typical piano-stool geometry. The complex is chiral at the metal and crystallizes as a racemate. Upon coordination, the hydrazinylidenepyridine ligand is non-planar, an angle of 54.42 (7)° being observed between the pyridine...
