    Abstract

    The linear μ-carbido complex [Rh2(μ-C)Cl2(dppm)2] (dppm=bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) reacts with dimethylacetylene dicarboxylate (DMAD) to afford [Rh2(μ-C)(μ-DMAD)Cl2(dppm)2], which features a bent RhCRh linkage (124.7°) that might be described as a dirhoda-heterocyclic carbene, as demonstrated by coordination to further metal centers.
