Abstract
Carbonylation of the complexes trans- MeOIr(CO)(PPh3)2, trans-(n-PrO)Ir(CO)(PPh3)2, and trans-PhOIr(CO)(PPh3)2 leads to carboalkoxy complexes ROC-(O)Ir(CO)2(PPh3)2 in high yield. Identification of the intermediate Ir(CO)3(PPh3)2+ OR- indicates a two-step mechanism—first displacement of the alkoxide from the coordination sphere and then nucleophilic attack on a carbon of the cationic carbonyl complex. The hydroxy complex did not undergo carbonylation under similar conditions.
