Abstract
The first example of insertion of the d8 RhI fragment [RhCl(PPh3)2] into a phosphirene ring system results in a five-coordinate RhIII complex, which undergoes insertion of carbon monoxide to give either monomeric [RhCl(PPhCPh=CPhCO)(PPh3) 2] or dimeric [RhCl(PPhCPh=)(PPh3)}2], the structures of which have been elucidated by NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
