	abstract = {During investigation of the homogeneous H-2-hydrogenation of the ketimine (o-HOC6H4)C(Me)=NCH2Ph catalyzed by the [Rh(COD)(PPh3)(2)]PF6 precursor in MeOH at ambient conditions, we have isolated [Rh{eta(4)-(C6H4O)C(-)(Me)=N(+)(H)CHPh}(PPh3)(2)]PF6 (3), an unusual zwitterionic Rh complex in which the imine is coordinated via the C-4 part of the o-hydroxy-arene moiety in a quinoid form; this tautomer is generated via proton transfer from the O-atom to the N-atom within the molecular, benzenoid form. Precipitation of 3 from the MeOH solution, even under H-2, causes sequestration of the Rh and complete suppression of the catalytic activity. (In a previously studied system with the corresponding, non-hydroxy-substituted ketimine, PhC(Me) = NCH2Ph, the Rh was sequestered as an inactive o-metalated species). The solid state structure of 3 is retained in CH2Cl2 solution, but in MeOH and Me2CO reversible loss of the ketimine generates the cis-[Rh(PPh3)(2)(solvent)(2)]PF6 species. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.

The PPh3-containing complex with R{\textquoteright} = Me, structurally characterized by X-ray analysis, reveals coordination of the semicarbazone by the ortho-C atom, the imine-N atom, and the amide-carbonyl group. For a semicarbazone containing no Ph group, the rhodium(I) complex [Rh(PR3)(2)(Et(Me)C=N-N(H)CONH2)]PF6, containing the eta(2)-semicarbazone bonded via the imine-N and carbonyl, is formed. Attempts to hydrogenate the C=N moiety in the complexes or to catalytically hydrogenate the semicarbazones were unsuccessful.},

In more strongly coordinating solvents, formation of cis-{Rh(PR3)(2)(solvent)(2)}PF6 is observed, while formation of [(PR3)(2)Rh(eta(6)-toluene)]PF6 is evident in toluene solution, and this exists in equilibrium with the bis(solvent) species in the presence, for example, of acetone or MeOH. At ambient conditions, none of the arene-containing complexes effected catalytic H-2-hydrogenation of toluene.},

A measured Delta H degrees value of similar to 0 kj mol(-1) allows for an estimation of an exothermicity of similar to 60 kj mol(-1) for binding an eta(2)-H-2 at an Ru(II) centre; a Delta S degrees value of similar to 60 J mol(-1) K-1 indicates that in solution 1 contains coordinated CH2Cl2. The kinetic and thermodynamic data are compared to those obtained from a previously studied hydrogenation of styrene catalyzed by 1. Preliminary findings on related systems containing Ph(2)P(CH2)(3)PPh(2) and (C6H11)(2)P(CH2)(4)P(C6H11)(2) are also noted.},
