Crystal structure and properties of (1,5-cyclooctadiene) (η5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) iridium(I) [Ir(cod)Cp*]

详细

Volatile iridium(I) complexes [Ir(cod)Cp^x] (Cp^x = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl Cp*, ethylcyclopentadienyl Cp^Et, cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) are synthesized and characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy. The [Ir(cod)Cp*] complex is a solid and the [Ir(cod)Cp^Et] complex is a liquid (SATP). The XRD method is used to determine the structure of the [Ir(cod)Cp*] complex: chemical formula C₁₈H₂₇Ir, space group P2₁/c, a = 8,4418(2) Å, b = 9,4764(3) Å, c = 19.2682(5) Å, β = 96.128(1) °, V = 1532.61(7) ų, Z = 4, d_calc = 1.888 g/cm³, μ = 8.697 mm^–1. The cyclopentadienyl ligand is η⁵-type coordinated; 1,5-cyclooctadiene have a cis-cis conformation and is η⁴-type coordinated. The thermal properties of the complexes are studied by thermogravimetry.
