Description

Di-¼-chloro-tetracarbonyldirhodium(I) is a compound that has been shown to catalyze the carbonylation of various organic substrates in the presence of oxygen. In the presence of a catalytic amount of di-¼-chloro-tetracarbonyldirhodium(I), aniline was converted to 4,4'-dichlorobenzophenone with a yield of 43%. The same reaction also produced 3,3'-dichlorobenzophenone and 2,2'-dichlorobenzophenone as side products. The compound was obtained by reacting hexanes with chlorodirhodium trichloride in the presence of air. The structural analysis was performed using x-ray diffraction technique on an orange powder. It was found that the compound crystallizes in a monoclinic space group with unit cell dimensions a=7.5 Å
