Abstract:
The title compound, dicarbonyl-1kappa(2)C-di-mu-chloro-1:2kappa(4)Cl-[cis,cis-2(eta(4))-1,5-cyclooctadiene]dirhodium(I), [Rh(2)Cl(2)(C(8)H(12))(CO)(2)], consists of a dichloro-bridged dimer of rhodium, with a non-bonded Rh.Rh distance of 3.284 (2) A. One Rh atom is coordinated to two carbonyl ligands, while the other Rh atom is coordinated to the cyclooctadiene moiety.
