Octanoate;rhodium(2+)（Cat No.:L045283）is a coordination compound consisting of a rhodium ion in the +2 oxidation state complexed with octanoate (caprylate) anions, which are the conjugate bases of octanoic acid—a medium-chain fatty acid. The octanoate ligands serve as carboxylate donors, stabilizing the rhodium(II) center through ionic and coordinate interactions. This complex may be used in catalytic applications, such as oxidation or hydrogenation reactions, and can serve as a precursor in organometallic synthesis. The lipophilic nature of octanoate also makes it suitable for use in nonpolar or mixed-phase systems in chemical research.
