Exploring the reactivity of C(sp3)-cyclometalated Ir(III) compounds in hydrogen transfer reactions.
The manuscript describes the synthesis and full characterization of a new PC(sp(3))P-based cyclometalated Ir(III) complex that manifests an exceptional thermal stability, as well as outstanding reactivity in hydrogen transfer reactions. The described compound represents the first example of a new family of stable C(sp(3))-metalated compounds.
