Synthesis, structure, and reactions of a nitroxyl complex of iridium(III), cis,trans-IrHCl2(NH=O)(PPh3)2.
Reaction of Ir(NO)(PPh3)3 with anhydrous HCl results in addition of 2 equivalents of HCl with formal protonation of the nitrosyl ligand, affording the unusual six-co-ordinate nitroxyl complex cis,trans-IrHCl2(NH=O)(PPh3)2.
