The synthesis and characterization of the complexes [Me2Gapz2]Rh(LL) (where LL = COD, (CO)2, (PPh3)2, or (PPh3)(CO)), incorporating the bidentate, chelating, dimethylbis(1-pyrazolyl)gallate ligand are described. Non-rigidity in solution has been demonstrated by 1H nmr studies for some of the complexes. A crystal structure determination of the COD complex has confirmed the boat conformation for the Ga—(N—N)2—Rh six-membered ring in this complex in the solid state. In addition, the solid state structures of the 3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl bridged dirhodium complexes [Rh(μ-3,5-Me2pz)(CO)2]2 and [Rh(μ-3,5-Me2pz)(COD)]2 have been determined. Crystals of [Me2Gapz2]Rh(COD) are orthorhombic, a = 22.7447(8), b = 11.9776(5), c = 6.4635(3) Å, Z = 4, space group Pnma; those of [Rh(μ-3,5-Me2pz)(CO)2]2 are monoclinic, a = 8.7403(6), b = 16.3594(6), c = 25.434(2) Å, β = 95.286(3)°, Z = 8, space group P21/c; and those of [Rh(μ-3,5-Me2pz)(COD)]2 are triclinic, a = 10.350(2), b = 11.401(2), c = 12.355(2) Å, α = 112.485(7), β = 99.394(9), γ = 105.387(8)°, Z = 2, space group [Formula: see text]. All three structures were solved by conventional heavy atom techniques and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to final conventional R values of 0.026, 0.024, and 0.037 for 1824, 5135, and 6109 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I), respectively. In each case the Rh atoms have distorted square planar coordination geometry. Important mean structural parameters are Rh—N = 2.087(2), Rh—C = 2.129(2), [Formula: see text] for [Me2Gapz2]Rh(COD); Rh—N = 2.063(6), Rh—CO = 1.852(9), [Formula: see text] for [Rh(μ-3,5-Me2pz)(CO)2]2; and Rh—N = 2.084(1), Rh—C = 2.131(7), [Formula: see text] for [Rh(μ-3,5-Me2pz)(COD)]2.
