Diene- and dicarbonyl-rhodium(I) complexes -1)>2 (diene = cod, nbd) and -1)>2 have been prepared by the reaction of or with the adenine derivatives: adenine (AdH), N6-methyladenine (6MadH) and N6,N6-dimethyladenine (DmadH).These dimeric complexes exhibit N3, N9 coordination of the bridging adeninate ligands as demonstrated by an X-ray structural study of 2 3c, prepared by substitution of a carbonyl ligand in 2 3b by PPh3.In contrast, a tetrameric structure was observed for -1)>4 4 (3mad = 3-methyladenine), in which the 3madH-1 anions are coordinated at N6 and N7.When N7 coordination is unfavourable and N9 unavailable, which is the case for 8-aza-9-methyladenine (Maad), N1, N6 binding may be observed, as established by an X-ray structural study of -1)>2 5.However, in order to achieve this coordination mode it is necesssary for the substituted exocyclic amino groups (N6) to twist by an average angle of 31.2 deg out of the base plane.
