posted on 17.07.2018, 13:49 authored by S.J. AndersonThe coordination behaviour of the pseudohalide ions (NCO¯ NCS¯ NCSe¯ NCTe¯) has been studied. A number of N- and S-bonded thiocyanate complexes
of rhodium(I), of the type Rh(PPh3)2(L)CNS (L = ligand), have
been prepared. The mode of linkage of the thiocyanate group has been
established by means of infrared spectral measurements. The preparation of Rh(PPh3)2(piperidine)NCS clearly demonstrates that a strongly π-accepting ligand such as CO is not a prerequisite for a N-thiocyanato complex
of the type Rh(PPh3)2(L)NCS. [Continues.]
