Tetracarbonyldi-μ-chloro-dirhodium (1) reacts with tri-tert-butylphosphane and alkyl or aryl trimethylsilyl sulfides 4 to give complexes tBu3)2Cl(SR)> (5a-i).The complexes 5h,i with the surface active trialkoxysilyl groups are fixed onto a fused silica support.The X-ray structural analyses of tBu3)2Cl(StBu)> (5c) and tBu3)2Cl(SC6H4Cl)> (5g) indicate a cis-configuration of the tri-tert-butylphosphane ligands.The new complexes catalyze the isomerization of 1-octen-3-ol (10) into 3-octanone (11), of 4-allylanisole (12) into cis- and trans-4-(1-propenyl)anisole (13), of trans-stilbene oxide (14) into desoxybenzoin (15), the transfer hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated ketones by formic acid (16 -> 17), and the transfer hydrogenolysis of trihalomethyl compounds (18, 20) by halogen free alcohols.
