µ-Dichlorotetraethylene dirhodium(I)

Description

µ-Dichlorotetraethylene dirhodium(I) is an organorhodium compound supplied by Thermo Fisher Scientific (Catalog 197591000). This chemical features a dirhodium core bridged by chloride ligands and coordinated by four ethylene molecules, as reflected in its molecular formula C8H16Cl2Rh2. It is typically offered in a 100 milligram quantity. As a rhodium(I) complex with unsaturated hydrocarbon ligands, it is primarily used in research laboratories as a precursor or catalyst in synthetic organic and organometallic chemistry. Its applications may include studies on olefin coordination, catalytic cycles, or the development of new synthetic methodologies involving transition metals.
