✦ Synopsis


X-Ray photoelectron and infrared spectroscopies are used to analyse the electronic displacements on changing the ligands in RhCICOLz complexes, particularly with Ph 3-,, P(N{), (n = I ,2,3) aminophosphines. In the free aminophosphines, a back donation from N to P is shown, whereas in the rhodium complexes an unexpected behaviour is observed, as the electron transfer seems to be from P to N. By comparing the binding energies of the nitrogen and phosphorus atoms in these complexes and the results obtained in hydroformylation of I-hexene, a good correlation is found between this electron acceptor property and the normal to branched aldehyde ratio.
