Synthesis and Reactivity of Nonbridged Metal−Metal Bonded Rhodium and Iridium Phenanthroline-Based N2O2 Dimers

Nonbridged metal dimers of phenanthroline-based N2O2 ligands of rhodium and iridium have been synthesized from the reactions of metal hydrides with TEMPO (2,2‘,6,6‘-tetramethylpiperidinyloxy). Modification of phenathroline ligands has led to more lipophilic metal complexes. The oxidative additions o...

Description
Summary:Nonbridged metal dimers of phenanthroline-based N2O2 ligands of rhodium and iridium have been synthesized from the reactions of metal hydrides with TEMPO (2,2‘,6,6‘-tetramethylpiperidinyloxy). Modification of phenathroline ligands has led to more lipophilic metal complexes. The oxidative additions of the metal dimers with methyl iodide, silane, and hydrogen have been studied.
