The filled/filled repulsion model can be used to explain qualitatively the trends in the acidity of the coordinated NH groups, the redox potentials of the amides, and the UV/Vis absorptions in different aggregates between a counter cation, [M(solv)n]+, and the first stable diamido rhodate(1−) anion (see structure and space-filling model), which was synthesized by using the tetradentate diamino diolefin ligand (S,S)-trop2dpen.
