چکیده
A reaction between [(COD)IrCl]2 (COD is cyclo-octa-1,5-diene), HCl and indene failed to provide the hoped for chlorido-indenyliridium dimer, but instead produced the title compound, [IrCl3(CH3CN)(C8H12)], which is an octa-hedral complex of iridium(III) with a chelating cyclo-octa-1,5-diene ligand, three chloride ligands in a fac arrangement, and one aceto-nitrile ligand. Attempts to devise a rational synthesis for the title compound were unsuccessful.

The reaction of (η(3)-all-yl)[(1,2,5,6-η)-cyclo-octa-1,5-diene]rhodium(I) with tris-(2,4-di-tert-butyl-phen-yl)phosphite in toluene produces the title compound, [Rh(C(42)H(62)O(3)P)(C(8)H(12))]·C(7)H(8), by spontaneous metallation at one of the nonsubstituted phenyl ortho-C atoms of the phosphite mol-ecule. The coordination geometry at the Rh(I) ion is distorted square-planar. The toluene solve...

In the title compound, [IrCl(C(8)H(12))(C(17)H(25)N(3))], the Ir(I) ion has a distorted square-planar coordination geometry. The N-heterocyclic carbene ligand has an extended S-shaped conformation. The butyl group was refined using a two-part 1:1 disorder model. In the crystal, three unique weak C-H⋯Cl contacts are present. Two of these form a motif described as R(2) (1)(6) in graph-set notatio...

The title complex, [IrCl(C8H12)2], was synthesized directly from the reaction of IrCl3·3H2O with a large excess of cod (cod = cyclo-octa-1,5-diene) in alcoholic solvent. Large yellow needles were obtained by the slow cooling of a hot solution. Based on the positions of the chloride ligand and the mid-points of the four C=C bonds, the mol-ecule adopts a five-coordinate geometry that is midway be...

In the mononuclear title complex, [Pt(C(7)H(7))(2)(C(8)H(12))], the Pt(II) ion exhibits a square-planar coordination geometry defined by two methyl-phenyl ligands and the mid-points of the two π-coordinated double bonds of cyclo-octa-1,5-diene. The two methyl-phenyl groups have a cis relationship with a C-Pt-C bond angle of 88.54 (18)° and a dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzene...

In the title complex, [PtBr(CH(3))(C(8)H(12))], the Pt(II) ion is in a distorted square-planar environment defined by the Br and methyl C atoms and the mid-points of the two π-coordinated double bonds of cyclo-octa-1,5-diene. As a result of the different trans influences of the Br atom and the methyl group, the Pt-C bonds trans to the methyl group [2.262 (11) and 2.261 (10) Å] are longer than t...
