Oxidative Addition of Water to Ir(I) Complexes Bearing a Pincer-Type Silyl Ligand.


ABSTRACT: Reaction of water with in situ generated [(PSiP-R)IrI] (PSiP-R = [{2-(R2P)C6H4}2MeSi]-; R = cyclohexyl, tBu or iPr) from [(PSiP-R)Ir(H)4] and tert-butylethylene (tbe) showed high ligand dependency. Oxidative addition of water cleanly proceeded in the reaction of [(PSiP-tBu)IrI] in THF at room temperature to selectively afford a 16-electron hydrido-hydroxo complex [(PSiP- t Bu)Ir(H)(OH)] almost quantitatively. In contrast, the reaction of cyclohexyl and iPr derivatives was unselective and formed various products containing Ir-H bonds. In the case of iPr-derivative, a small amount of 18-electron hydrido-hydroxo aqua complex [(PSiP-iPr)Ir(H)(OH)(H2O)] was isolated and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography.
