fac-{2-[Bis(2-amino-eth-yl)amino]-ethanaminium}trichloridorhodium(III) chloride hemihydrate.

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Rh(C(6)H(19)N(4))Cl(3)]Cl·0.5H(2)O, is isotypic with the previously reported Ru analogue. The structure contains two crystallographically independent [Rh(Htren)Cl(3)](+) cations with a facial tridentate coordination of the monoprotonated tren ligand [tren = tris-(2-amino-eth-yl)amine], leading to an overall distorted octahedral coordination environment around the Rh(III) atom.

Synthesis and characterization of vanadium(IV) complexes with cis-inositol in aqueous solution and in the solid-state.

The complex formation of vanadium(IV) with cis-inositol (ino) and the corresponding trimethyl ether 1,3,5-trideoxy-1,3,5-trimethoxy-cis-inositol (tmci) was studied in aqueous solution and in the solid-state. With increasing pH, the formation of [VO(H-2L)], [(VO)2L2H-5]-, [VO(H-3L)]- (L = ino) or [(VO)2L2H-6]2- (L = tmci), [V(H-3L)2]2-, and [VO(H-3L)(OH)2]3- was observed. For the vanadium(IV)/ino system, [(VO)2L2H-7]3- was observed as an additional dinuclear species.
