trans-Carbonylchloridobis(tri-o-tolylphosphane-κP)rhodium(I)

In the title compound, [RhCl(C21H21P)2(CO)], the coordination geometry around the RhI atom is slightly distorted square-planar with the phosphane ligands in trans positions with respect to each other. The chloride and carbonyl ligands show positional disorder, and the RhI atom lies on a center of in...

Description
Summary:In the title compound, [RhCl(C21H21P)2(CO)], the coordination geometry around the RhI atom is slightly distorted square-planar with the phosphane ligands in trans positions with respect to each other. The chloride and carbonyl ligands show positional disorder, and the RhI atom lies on a center of inversion. The effective cone angle ΘE for the title compound is 169.0 (3)°. There are no significant intermolecular interactions.
