Our current research interests is the coordination chemistry of solvated polynuclear metal cations, especially the recently reported rhodium(II,II) complex, (Rh{sub 2}(CH{sub 3}CH){sub 4})(F{sub 4}){sub 4}. In order to circumvent the problems associated with preparing and handling aqua species, we have developed a convenient synthesis for the CH{sub 3}CN derivative of RH{sub 2} (vide supra), a compound that allows easy access to other monomeric and polynuclear compounds of Rh(II). We now also report the synthesis of a pseudo-octahedral rhodium(II) monomer stabilized only by two bulky phosphine ligands.
