Schiff Base in Ketoamine Form and Rh(η⁴-cod)-Schiff Base Complex with Z' = 2 Structure from Pairwise C-H···Metallochelate-π Contacts.

ABSTRACT: Condensation of 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (salicylaldehyde) or 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with 2-ethylaniline yields the Schiff base compound of (E)-2-(((2-ethylphenyl)imino)methyl)phenol (HL¹) or (E)-1-(((2-ethylphenyl)imino)methyl)naphthalen-2-ol (HL²), which in turn react with the dinuclear complex of [Rh(η⁴-cod)(µ-O₂CCH₃)]₂ (cod = cycloocta-1,5-diene) to afford the mononuclear (η⁴-cod){(E)-2-(((2-ethylphenyl)imino)methyl)phenolato-κ²N,O}rhodium(I), [Rh(η⁴-cod)(L¹)] (1) or (η⁴-cod){(E)-1-(((2-ethylphenyl)imino)methyl)naphthalen-2-olato-κ²N,O}rhodium(I), [Rh(η⁴-cod)(L²)] (2) (L¹ or L
