Hello everyone, just wondering can Rhodium Chloride react with imidazole or benzeimidazole?

from my understand, Rh(III) can coordinate with pyridine, since there is a  pyridine like nitrogen in imidazole, is it possible that Rh(III) reacts with imidazole or benzeimidazole?

This is an extremely niche topic, have you tried google scholar searching first?
