Die photochemische synthese von μ-(1-2-η:2-3-η-allen)-octacarbonyldimangan(0)

Novel dihydroiridium(III) complexes containing mono- and bi-dentate sulfur ligands have been isolated. The cationic complexes [Ir(COD)L₂]ClO₄ (COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, L = tetrahydrothiophene (tht) or trimethylene sulfide (tms); L₂ = (CH₃S)₂(CH₂)₃ (dth)), [Ir(COD)(L-L)]₂(ClO₄)₂ (L-L = 1,4-dithiacyclohexane (dt) or (t-BuS)₂(CH₂)₂ (tmdto)) and [Ir(CO)₂(tmdto)]₂-(ClO₄)₂ react with H₂ to give the corresponding iridium(III) dihydrides: [IrH₂COD)L₂]ClO₄ (Ia: L = tht, Ib: L = tms, Ic: L₂ = dth), [IrH₂(COD)-(L-L)]₂(ClO₄)₂ (IIa: L-L = tmdto, IIb: L-L = dt) and [IrH₂(CO)₂(tmdto)]₂-(ClO₄)₂ (III). The ¹H NMR chemical shifts and ν(IrH) data are discussed.
