The reactions of (C[sub 5]Me[sub 5])Rh(PMe[sub 3])PhH with furan, 2,5-dimethylfuran, 2,3-dihydrofuran, dibenzofuran, pyrrole, 1-methylpyrrole, 2,5-dimethylpyrrole, 1,2,5-trimethylpyrrole, carbazole, 9-methylcarbazole, pyrrolidine, pyridine, 3,5-lutidine, 2,4,6-collidine, pyrazole, 3-methylpyrazole, and piperidine have been investigated. While the oxygen heterocycles give only C-H activation, the nitrogen heterocycles yield C-H and N-H insertion products. The chloro derivative (C[sub 5]Me[sub 5])Rh(PMe[sub 3])[2-(1-methylpyrrole)]Cl was found to crystallize in the monoclinic space group C2/c with a = 13.753 (6) A, b = 9.665 (5) A, c = 30.14 (2) A, [beta] = 99.77 (5)-[degree], Z = 8, and V = 3949 (4.1) A[sup 3] while (C[sub 5]Me[sub 5])Rh(PMe[sub 5])[2-(3,5-lutidine)]Cl was found to crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2[sub 1]/c with a = 14.976 (8) A, b = 8.613 (5) A, c = 17.12 (2) A, [beta] = 101.90 (6)[degree], Z = 4, and V = 2160 (5.2) A[sup 3]. 30 refs., 2 figs., 3 tabs.
