(3-Methylbenzonitrile-1κN)-cis-tetrakis(μ-N-phenylacetamidato)-1:2κ4N:O;1:2κ4O:N-dirhodium(II)(Rh—Rh)

The complex molecule of the title compound, [Rh2{N(C6H5)COCH3}4(NCC7H7)], has crystallographically-imposed mirror symmetry. The four acetamide ligands bridging the dirhodium core are arranged in a 2,2-cis manner with two N atoms and two O atoms coordinating to the unique RhII atom cis to one another...
