title: Highly active iridium(I) complexes for the selective hydrogenation of carbon-carbon multiple bonds.
abstract: New iridium(I) complexes, bearing a bulky NHC/phosphine ligand combination, have been established as extremely efficient hydrogenation catalysts that can be used at low catalyst loadings, and are compatible with functional groups which are often sensitive to more routinely employed hydrogenation methods.
