Synthesis, characterization and dynamic behavior of some iridium carbonyl cluster complexes derived from Ir4(CO)12 with N-, P- and C-donor ligands: A survey

• Iridium dodeca carbonyls derivatives are important for fluxional studies with NMR spectroscopy.
• Iridium clusters are used as catalysts in the hydrogenation processes.
• New routes to obtain 13CO enrichment of tetrairidium carbonyl clusters.

The synthesis of iridium dodecacarbonyl cluster derivatives Ir4(CO)12 with donor ligand such as amine, phosphites, hydrido and cyclic mono and dioxycarbene, NMR and X-ray characterization and fluxional behavior study in solution at variable temperature is briefly reviewed.

The synthesis of iridium dodecacarbonyl cluster derivatives with donor ligand such as mono and diamine, phosphites, hydrido and cyclic-dioxycarbene, NMR and X-ray characterization and fluxional behavior study in solution at variable temperature is shortly reviewed.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
