Abstract

Six molecular squares were obtained by reacting the singly metal–metal-bonded complex [Rh2(cis-DAniF )2(CH3CNeq)4(CH3CNax)2](BF4)2 (DAniF = N,N ′-di-p-anisylformamidinate), and (Et4N+)2(Carb2−) where Carb2− represents the dicarboxylate anion bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane-1,3-dicarboxylate, 1; tetrafluoroterephthalate, 2; 1,4-cubanedicarboxylate, 3; terephthalate, 4; fumarate, 5; trans-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate, 6; these squares stack in the crystal forming square channels capable of accommodating solvent molecules and the NMR spectra are consistent with the presence of highly symmetrical structures even in solution.
