Intramolecular Dynamics of Tetranuclear Iridium Carbonyl Cluster Compounds. Part 1. Bromotri-μ-carbonyloctacarbonyltetrairidate(1–)

A 2D and variable-temperature ¹³C-NMR study indicates that a CO-site exchange occurs in the title complex via several consecutive processes, the first being a ‘merry-go-round’ of the basal CO's, the second a switch of basal face not involving unbridged intermediates.
