Abstract

Isolated hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate anions Tp' were obtained as salts of metal complex cations (see picture) by the displacement of Rh-coordinated kappa(3)-N,N',N"-Tp' by PMe(3) (Tp'=Tp and Tp(Me2)). With [(kappa(3)-Tp(Me2))Rh(C(2)H(4))(2)], stepwise diplacement of the Tp(Me2) ligand allowed the isolation of complexes exhibiting the kappa(2)- Tp(Me2) and kappa(1)-Tp(Me2) coordination modes.
