The crystal structure of the title compound, [Rh(C8H12)2](CF3SO3), consists of [(C8H12)2Rh]+ cations and F3CSO3 anions. The cyclo­octa-1,5-diene ligands are chelated to the central metal atom to create a coordination geometry about rhodium which is essentially square planar.

The title compound, (I), and related complexes containing BF4-, PF6-, SbF6- or ClO4- anions (Green et al., 1970, 1971; Schenck et al., 1985; Schrock & Osborn, 1971; Uson et al., 1976) are frequently used as precursors of chiral chelate phosphine-substituted derivatives [(C8H12)RhL2]X which have wide application as catalysts for asymmetric hydrogenation reactions (e.g. Burk et al., 1993; Dahlenburg & Eckert, 1998; Dahlenburg & Kurth, 1999). The structure of (I) consists of two discrete [(C8H12)2Rh]+ cations lying on special positions 4 e (site symmetry 2; molecule 1) and 4 b (site symmetry 1; molecule 2) of the C-centered monoclinic unit cell, in addition to one F3CSO3- anion in a general position. The chelating cyclooctadiene ligands are π-bonded to the central metal in an essentially square-planar fashion, as anticipated. The range of interatomic distances spanned by the rhodium-to-carbon bonds, 2.240 (8)–2.263 (8) Å in molecule 1 and 2.205 (11)–2.269 (12) Å in molecule 2, compares well to that previously found for [(C8H12)2Rh][(µ-Cl)3{Re(CO)3}2] [Rh—C 2.198 (10)–2.254 (14) Å; Baenziger et al., 1991], which appears to be the only other example of a crystallographically characterized [(C8H12)2Rh]+ complex salt contained in the Cambridge Structural Database (Allen & Kennard, 1993). The trifluoromethanesulfonate counter-ion adopts the expected staggered conformation.

Experimental top

[C8H12)2Rh](O3SCF3) was prepared according to published procedures (Burk et al., 1993; Schenck et al., 1985; Schrock & Osborn, 1971). Single crystals were grown from dichloromethane/pentane.

Refinement top

All non-H atoms were located by direct methods and subsequent alternate cycles of difference Fourier synthesis and full matrix least-squares refinement. The resulting structural model was refined to convergence with allowance for anisotropic thermal motion of the non-H atoms. H atoms were included in geometrically idealized positions employing appropriate riding models with isotropic displacement parameters constrained to 1.2Ueq of their carrier atoms. The high Ueq values observed for some of the C atoms of the cyclooctadiene ligands and the F and O atoms of the trifluoromethanesulfonate anion are associated with thermal motion of the rings and the respective CF3 and SO3 units of the anion. Several approaches at refining the structural model using split occupancies were attempted but the suspected disorder could not plausibly be resolved. As artificially short Csp3—Csp3 distances resulted for the bonds between C3 and C4 and, respectively, C11 and C12, these bond lengths were restrained to a more sensible target value of 1.50 (2) Å during the final cycles. The highest peaks and deepest holes in the final difference map were located at distances less than 1.3 Å from the heavy metal atom.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
