Rhodium(II) acetate dimer(Rh2(OAc)4) facilitates the hydrolysis of esters and aids in the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones. The catalytic prowess of Rhodium(II) acetate dimer stems from its function as a Lewis acid, which activates substrates through the formation of metal-ligand complexes. Within these complexes, the dirhodium core is surrounded by four acetate ligands, which assist in creating new bonds that drive reactions forward.
