Removal of chloride from Cp*Ir(glycinato)Cl in noncoordinating solvents with Ag[PF<sub>6</sub>] or Tl[PF<sub>6</sub>] leads to the formation of a closed octametallic loop of cations. The same loop also sequesters a number of PF<sub>6</sub> <sup>-</sup> counter anions. This is in contrast with reports that piano-stool complexes with amino acids form only trimetallic [Cp*Ir(aminoacidato)]<sub>3</sub> <sup>3+</sup> moieties upon creating the cation. Cp*Ir(glycinato)Cl also forms a trimetallic compo ...[more]
