The title complex, [Rh(C5H7O2)(C17H14NP)(CO)], adopts a square-planar geometry, with bite angles around the rhodium(I) centre varying between 85.28 (7) and 93.59 (8)°. The two phenyl rings and the one pyridine ring of the phosphine ligand are arranged in a face on/edge on orientation, with dihedral angles between the planes formed by these rings ranging between 66.55 (7) and 80.50 (7)°.

Comment top

The title compound (I) contains a rhodium(I) centre which is surrounded by two oxygen atoms of the acac ligand, a carbon atom of the carbonyl ligand and a phosphorous atom of the P(Pyr)(Ph)2 ligand. The Rh1–C6 bonding distance is 1.810 (2) Å while the Rh1–O1 and Rh1–O2 distances are 2.0700 (15) and 2.0343 (15) Å respectively. The Rh1–P1 bonding distance is 2.2302 (8) Å.

The bite angles around the rhodium(I) centre vary between 85.28 (7) and 93.59 (8)°. All the bonding distances and angles fall in the expected range for similar complexes (Wajda-Hermanowicz et al. 2006, Drommi et al. 1995, Brink et al. 2007a, Brink et al. 2007b).

The P(Pyr)(Ph)2 ligand is behaving as a monodentate ligand in (I), although several cases have been reported where it behaves as a bridging (Farr et al. 1983; Cotton & Matusz, 1988; Marsh, 1997) or a bidentate ligand (Clarke et al. 2001).

Experimental top

[Rh(acac)(CO)2] (Leipoldt et al.,1978) (0.0109 g, 0.042 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (5 ml). 2-(Diphenylphosphino)pyridine (0.0111 g, 0.042 mmol) was added to this solution. The solution was stirred until a yellow precipitate formed. The product, (I), was dissolved in 5 ml diethyl ether and filtered. Yellow crystals were obtained after 24 h in 70% yield. 31P NMR (CDCl3, p.p.m..): [δ, 1J(Rh–P) = 177.09 Hz] IR ν(Rh—CO) 1963 cm-1.

Refinement top

The methyl, and aromatic H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with [C—H = 0.95–1.00 Å, and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) and 1.2Ueq(C)]. The methyl H atoms were refined as a rigid rotor.

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.
