Heating [Cp＊Rh(η²-NO₃)(OTf) (1) and PhC≡CPh in EtOH for 3 h gave a η⁴-cyclobutadienerhodium complex, [Cp＊Rh(η⁴-C₄Ph₄)] (2). Complex 1 reacted with HC=CPh in acetone at room temperature for 3 h to give a (η⁴-cyclobutadiene)-rhodium complex, [Cp＊Rh(η⁴-C₄HPhC=CPh)] (3). Whereas, the reactions of 1 with HC=CCH₂Cl in acetone at room temperature for 3 h gave the triply halide-bridged dinuclear rhodium complex, [Cp＊Rh(μ₂-Cl)₃RhCp＊](OTf) (4). Complexes 2-4 have been structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction.

Rhodium(III)-$Cp^*$ complexes containing labile ligands, $[Cp^*RhCl_2]_2$, [$Cp^*Rh({\eta}^2-NO_3)$(OTf)], and $[Cp^*Rh(OH_2)_3](OTf)_2$, reacted with potential linking ligands [$L^1$ = (2-thiophene)-CH=N-N=CH-(2-thiophene); $L^2$ = (2-furan)-CH=N-N=CH-(2-furan)] to give two molecular compounds, [$Cp^*Rh(L^1)Cl_2$] (1) and [$Cp^*Rh({\eta}^2-NO_3)(L^1)$]$(OTf){\cdot}CH_2Cl_2$ ($2{\cdot}CH_2Cl_2$), and one 1-dimensioanl coordination polymer, $\{[Rh(L^2)]{\cdot}(OTf)}_{\infty}$ (3). Whereas one imine nitrogen atom within the ligand is coordinated to the Rh metal in compounds 1 and 2, both nitrogen atoms are bound to two neighboring Rh metals in compound 3 to lead to a 1-D chain polymer.

Monomeric rhodium and iridium diimine complexes $Cp^*M(HNRNH)(Cp^*$ = 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl : (M=lr; R=o-$C_6H_4 (1a), 4,5-(CH_3)_2-C_6H_2-1,2 (1b), 4,5-(Cl)_2-C_6H_2-1,2$ (1c), NCC=CCN-1,2 (1d): M=Rh; R=NCC=CCN-1,2 (1e)) have been synthesized from $[CP^*MCl_2]_2$ and 2 equiv. of diamine in the presence of $NEt_3$. The Crystal structure of 1a was determined by X-ray diffraction method : 1a was crystallized in the monoclinic system, space group $P2_{1/c}$, with lattice constants a=9.543 (1) ${\AA}$, b=16.286 (1) ${\AA}$, c=10.068 (1) ${\AA}$ and ${\beta}$=99.25 (1), with Z= 4. Least-squares refinement of the structure led to R factor of 0.049. The coordination sphere of rhodium and iridium can be described as a 2-legged piano-stool. All complexes are highly colored. Electrochemical studies show that 1d and 1e display quasi-reversible reduction and 1a-1c display irreversible reductions, suggesting that the acceptor orbital might be localized on the diimine ring.

Monomeric rhodium and iridium-diaryltetrazene complexes $Cp^*$M(RNN=NNR)($Cp^*$=1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclope ntadienyl; M=Rh, Ir; R=Ph, 4-tolyl) have been synthesized from [$Cp^*MCl_2]_2$(M=Rh, Ir) and 2 equiv. of $[Li(THF)_x]_2(RN_4$R) in benzene. We have determined the crystal structure of (${\eta}^5$-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)diphenyltetrazene iridium by using graphite-monochromated Mo-$K_a$ radiation. The compound was crystallized in the monoclinic space group $P2_{1/c}$ with a=13.781(3), b=9.035(l), c=17.699(3) ${\AA}$, and ${\beta}=111.93(l)^{\circ}$. An X-ray crystal structure of complex 1 showed a short N(2)-N(3) distance ($1.265 {\AA}$) consistent with the valence tautomer A with Ir(III) rather than Ir(I). All complexes are highly colored and decompose on irradiation at 254 nm. Electrochemical studies show that complex 1 displays a quasi-reversible reduction.

[Cp＊Rh(H₂O)₃](OTf)₂ (1) reacts with a stoichiometric amount of A and B [ A = Me₃SiN₃, B = 4,4'-bipridyl, (2a), A = Me₃SiNCO, B = 4,4'-bipridyl (2b)] in acetone at room temperature for 3 h to give the supramolecular complexes [Cp＊₄Rh₄(μ-A)₄(μ-B)₂] [A = Me₃SiN₃, B = 4,4'-bipridyl, (2a), A = Me₃SiNCO, B = 4,4'-bipridyl (2b)]. Complexes 2a and 2b have been structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction.

Studies have been carried out on the unusual molecular nonrigidity of CoⅢ(PymS)3 and Cp* RhⅢ(PymS)2(PymS:2-mercaptopyrimidine). The crystal structure of CoⅢ(PymS)3 approximates to an octahedral mer isomer with 4-membered N-Schelating fashion. For Cp*RhⅢ(PymS)2, one PymS ligand bonds to the rhodium ion in an S-monodentate mode (Rh-S(2) = 2.366(1)Å) while the other ligand chelates to the metal ion in an N,S-bidentae mode (Rh-S(1)=2.414(1);Rh-N(1)=2.103(3)Å). Even though the conformations and configurations of both complexes are still retained in solution, an unusual nonrigidity for the protons of the PymS region is obsered in the solution. The broad proton signals of CoⅢ(PymS)3 exhibit a temperature-dependence in the range of -40∼40℃ with a free energy of activation ΔG=64.49kJ/mol(40℃). For Cp*RhⅢ(PymS)₂,such a fluxionality has been markedly observed in solution. This fluxional behavior can be explained in terms of "ligand tautomerism" in metal complexes containing potential tautomeric forms.
