As part of my diploma thesis, I tried to synthesize six organorhodium(III) complexes with the starting reactant dichloride(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)rhodium(III) dimer and a series of 4-heteroaryl-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine ligands. Two of these ligands were also prepared as part of this thesis. Three of the six complexes were successfully synthesized and characterized by NMR, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.
