Abstract
Two conformers for the cationic rhodium(I) complexes of the title 14-membered cyclic tetrasulphides have been prepared and the conformational effect upon the nucleophilicity of rhodium(I) ion is shown by the oxidative addition reaction of CH2Cl2; {Rh[14]aneS4}Cl (1), in which the Rh atom lies 0.1332(2)Å above the plane of four S atoms, forms a dimer through a Rh ⋯ Rh [3.313(1)Å] and four Rh ···S [3.697(9)–3.822(3)Å] intermolecular non-bonded interactions as established by an X-ray crystal structure determination.Keywords
