Variable‐temperature 1 H and 77 Se NMR data for 3‐phenylselenenyl‐1‐phenyl‐1‐propene (1) in the presence of Rh 2 (MTPA) 4 (Rh*) prove that the equilibria are strongly shifted towards the adduct Rh*···1; free selenide molecules cannot be detected as long as uncomplexed rhodium atoms are available. In the case of excess Rh*, both 1 : 2 and 1 : 1 adducts (Rh* vs 1) are formed, and the latter is slightly favoured. With excess selenide, the system strongly favours the complexation of two selenide molecules (1 : 2 adduct), i.e. one at each rhodium atom. In this situation, intermolecular selenide exchange can be monitored by variable‐temperature 1 H NMR spectroscopy and the energy barrier is estimated to be 54–55 kJ mol −1 .
