Abstract
The structures of rhodium(I) complexes with a chiral pyrrolidinodiphosphine, BPPM, are studied by means of 31P NMR spectroscopy. The spectra show that there are two conformational isomers without substrate. However, the complex takes a preferred conformation by the coordination of an olefinic substrate. The results are well accommodated by the “induced fit” model.
