The fluoro-bridged cluster [FRh(C2H4)(C2F4)]4 was prepared by treatment of [ClRh(C2H4)(C2F4)]2 with AgBF4, followed by reaction with [(CH3)2N]3S+(CH3) 3SiF2-. The cubanelike structure of the tetrameric complex was established by X-ray crystallography. Reaction of [FRh(C2H4)(C2F4)]4 with P(C6H5)3 yielded the new monometallic complex FRh(C2F4)[P(C6H5)3] 2. The monometallic rhodium-fluoride complex can undergo reactions involving ligand substitution or fluoride extraction. In a ligand substitution reaction, solutions of FRh(C2F4)[P(C6H5)3] 2 react with CO to give FRh(CO) [P(C6H5)3]2. Reaction with (CH3)3SiO3SCF3 yielded CF3SO3Rh(C2F4)[P(C6H 5)3]2, derived from the fluoride extraction reaction.
