Summary

Cationic rhodium(I) complexes of the type [Rh(diolefin)(L-L)]ClO4 and [Rh(diolefin)L2]ClO4, (diolefin = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, 2,5-norbornadiene and tetrafluorobenzobarrelene; L-L = 2,2′-biimidazole, 2,2′-bibenzimidazole; L = pyrazole or imidazoles) are described. [Rh(CO)2(L-L)]-C1O4 complexes, which can be obtained by reaction of cyclooctadiene derivatives with CO, react with P-donor ligands in equimolar ratios to yield [Rh(CO)(P-donor)(L-L)]ClO4 monocarbonyl derivatives. The catalytic activity of some of these complexes is considered.
