Abstract
The ionic complex, methyltriphenylphosphonium(I) trans-bis(dimethylsulfoxido)tetrabromorhodiate, was prepared by the reaction of sodium hexabromorhodiate with methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide in dimethyl sulfoxide and studied by X-ray diffraction. The phosphorus atom in the [Ph3MeP]+ cation has an almost undistorted tetragonal coordination (the CPC angles are 108.3(2)°–110.5(2)°, the P-C bonds are 1.779(6)–1.798(4) Å). In the octahedral complex anion [RhBr4(DMSO)2-trans]−, the dimethyl sulfoxide ligands are coordinated by the sulfur atoms (Rh-S, 2.344(1), 2.336(1); Rh-Br, 2.4839(7)–2.4934(7) Å; SRhS, 179.56(7)°; trans-BrRhBr, 179.30(3)°, 179.56(7)°) (CIF file CCDC no. 978748).
