Investigation of the crystal structure of a dimeric rhodium(III) complex [(NH3)6Rh2(μ-CO3)(μ-OH)2](NO3)2·H2O

详细

A complex compound [(NH₃)₆Rh₂(μ-CO₃)(μ-OH)₂](NO₃)₂·H₂O has been obtained and structurally characterized. Crystal data: a = 7.9103(16) Å, b = 9.606(2) Å, c = 11.283(2) Å, α = 103.206(4)°, β = = 110.045(4)°, γ = 93.890(5)°, space group P-1, Z = 2, d_x = 2.335 g/cm³. The crystal structure is a packing of dimeric complex rhodium cations [Rh₂(μ-OH)₂(μ-CO₃)(NH₃)₆]²⁺, nitrate anions, and crystallization water molecules joined by a system of hydrogen bonds. The compound has been investigated with IR spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction. The isolated crystalline phase is poorly soluble in water.
