Abstract
Steric and electronic effects of phosphine ligands on binding of molecules to iridium(I) have been probed by studying reactions of O2, SO2 and CH3I with trans-Ir(CO)(Cl)(P(i-Pr)3)2 and trans-Ir(CO)(Cl)(P(t-Bu)2Me)2 for comparison to known reactions with trans-Ir(CO)(Cl)L2 (L = PPh3, P(p-tolyl)3 and PCy3). Reaction of O2 is significantly retarded by increasing size of the ligand while reaction of SO2 is essentially unaffected by the nature of the phosphine ligand. Reaction of CH3I with trans-Ir(CO)(Cl)(P(t-Bu)2Me)2 produces two products which have been characterized by NMR and infrared spectroscopy.
