Heavy atom metallaheterocycles are an emerging family of new complexes that exhibit new structures and interesting chemical properties. In this work, the iridium–bismuth heterocyclic complex, [Ir4(CO)10(μ-BiPh2)(μ-H)]2, 1 has been obtained from the reaction of [PPN][HIr4(CO)11] with Ph2BiCl. Compound 1 was structurally characterized and was found to contain two centrosymmetrically-related Ir4(CO)10(μ-H) clusters linked by two bridging BiPh2 ligands positioned on opposite sides of a planar six-membered Ir4Bi2 ring.
Graphical abstractThe iridium–bismuth complex [Ir4(CO)10(μ-BiPh2)(μ-H)]2,1 was obtained from the reaction of [HIr4(CO)11]− anion with Ph2BiCl. Complex 1 contains a planar, six-membered Ir4Bi2 ring composed of two tetrahedral [HIr4(CO)11] clusters linked by two bridging BiPh2 ligands.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
