A lantern-type dinuclear complexcis-[Rh2(4-Me-pf)2(O2CCF3)2] (1) (4-Me-pf−=N,N′-di-p-tolylformamidinate anion) was reacted with an excess of pivalic acid in an aqueous NaOH solution with CHCl3/MeOH (1:3 vol./vol.) at room temperature for 24 h with stirring to givecis-[Rh2(4-Me-pf)2(O2CCMe3)2] (2). A single crystal obtained by recrystallization of1from an acetonitrile solution was employed for X-ray crystal structure analysis. The analysis showed that the obtained complex was acis-[Rh2(4-Me-pf)2(O2CCMe3)2(MeCN)2] (2(MeCN)2) with a lantern-type dinuclear structure and acis-(2:2) arrangement of the two formamidinato and two carboxylato ligands around the dirhodium(II) core, similar to the previously reported crystal structures for1(H2O)2·0.5C6H6and1(MeCN)2. Complex2showed absorption bands at 613, 506, 435, and 344 nm in MeCN, while complex1showed the bands at 516, 460, and 326 nm in MeCN. All the bands observed for1and2were reasonably assigned using time-dependent density functional theory calculation. Moreover, it was confirmed that the electron-donatingt-butyl groups on the carboxylato bridges of2give rise to negative shifts in the redox potentials (E1/2= 0.32 and 1.22 V (vs. SCE) in CH2Cl2) for Rh2II,II/Rh2II,IIIand Rh2II,III/Rh2III,IIIprocesses relative to those of1(E1/2= 0.71 and 1.47 V (vs. SCE) in CH2Cl2) that has electron-withdrawing fluorine groups on the carboxylate bridges.
