Synthesis of stable monomeric iridium(0) and iridium(–1) complexes
Abstract
Using the troppPh ligand 1, stable monomeric d8-Ir+I, d9-Ir0 and d10-Ir–I complexes could be isolated and structurally characterized; in all complexes, the metal centre lies within a coordination sphere intermediate between a square plane and a tetrahedron.
