RT Journal Article T1 Synthesis and Structural Characterization of a Series of One-Dimensional Heteronuclear Dirhodium-Silver Coordination Polymers A1 Cruz Franch, Paula A1 Fernández Bartolomé, Estefanía A1 Cortijo Montes, Miguel A1 Delgado Martínez, Patricia A1 González Prieto, Rodrigo A1 Priego Bermejo, José Luis A1 Torres, María del Rosario A1 Jiménez Aparicio, Reyes AB Herein, we describe the preparation of heteronuclear dirhodium-silver complexes by reaction between molecular Rh(II)-Rh(II) compounds [Rh2(μ-O2CR)4L2] (R = Me, Ph (1), CH2OEt (2); L = solvent molecules) with paddlewheel structure and PPh4[Ag(CN)2]. One-dimensional coordination polymers of (PPh4)n[Rh2(μ-O2CR)4Ag(CN)2]n (R = Me (3), Ph (4), CH2OEt (5)) formula have been obtained by replacement of the two labile molecules in the axial positions of the paddlewheel structures by a [Ag(CN)2]− bridging unit. The crystal structures of 3–5 display a similar arrangement, having anionic chains with a wavy structure and bulky (PPh4)+ cations placed between the chains. The presence of the (PPh4)+ cations hinders the existence of intermolecular Ag-Ag interactions although several C-H····π interactions have been observed. A similar reaction between [Rh2(μ-O2CCMe3)4(HO2CCMe3)2] and PPh4[Ag(CN)2] led to the molecular compound (PPh4)2{Rh2(μ-O2CCMe3)4[Ag(CN)2]2} (6) by replacement of the axial HO2CCMe3 ligands by two [Ag(CN)2]− units. The trimethylacetate ligand increases the solubility of the complex during the crystallization favouring the formation of discrete heteronuclear species.
