C(sp3)–H and C(sp2)–H bond activation in the (pentamethylcyclo-pentadienyl)rhodium(III)system: formation of (2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diyl)(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)(triphenylphosphine-rhodium and neopentyl(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)(triphenylphosphine-C2,P)-rhodium

Abstract
The rhodacyclobutane [[graphic omitted]H2(η5)-C5Me5)(PPh3)] and the ortho-metallated compound [[graphic omitted](C6H5)2(CH2CMe3)(η5-C5Me5)] are formed in the reaction of [RhCl2(η5-C5Me5(PPh3)] with LiCH2CMe3 or XMgCH2CMe3.
