Abstract

The reaction of [Cp*RhCl ₂] ₂ with an aniline (R′NH ₂) and a terminal alkyne (RCCH) afforded the N-containing cyclometalated rhodium complexes Cp*Rh(Cl)[N(R′)=C(CH ₂R)CH=CR] via a hydroamination and a 1,2-insertion of an alkyne. A reaction pathway has been proposed on the basis of deuterium labeling experiments and computational studies.
