Experimental and DFT: Summary kinetics33.

• The stability/reactivity of the HOMO of [Rh(RCOCHCOR')(XY)] complexes is related to the electronic influence of R and R' on Rh – more electron donating, higher HOMO energy

• The energy of the HOMO of [Rh(RCOCHCOR')(XY)] relates to: – experimental electrochemical oxidation potential– experimental substitution kinetic rate constants – experimental oxidative addition kinetic rate constants

• Close correlation between the experimental and the theoretical descriptors enable the design of related rhodium complexes with a particular reactivity.
