Abstract

The reactivity of a number of Ir-I complexes towards CO2 is explored using [Ir(NHC)(OH)] as a key synthon. CO2 insertion into Ir-O and Ir-N bonds proved facile, yielding a number of Ir-I-carbonates and -carbamates. Most importantly, reaction between CO2 and Ir-I-OH led to isolation of the novel [{Ir-I}(2)-(mu-kappa(1):kappa(2)-CO3)] complex.
