Dicarbonyl(acetylacetonato)rhodium(I) is an organorhodium compound with the formula Rh(O2C5H7)(CO)2. The compound consists of two CO ligands and an acetylacetonate. It is a dark green solid that dissolves in acetone and benzene. The compound is used as a precursor to homogeneous catalysts.
It is prepared by treating rhodium carbonyl chloride with acetylacetone in the presence of base:
The complex adopts square planar molecular geometry. The molecules stack with Rh---Rh distances of about 326 pm.
