Abstract
Abstract The reaction of trans -chlorobis(triphenylphosphine)dinitrogeniridium(I) and carbon disulfide leads to formation of IrCl[(C 6 H 5 ) 3 P] 2 C 2 S 5 (II). Reaction of (II) with triphenylphosphine in the presence of methanol gives trans -chlorobis(triphenylphosphine)(thiocarbonyl)iridium(I). Treatment of (II) with triphenylphosphine in dichloromethane gives (PPh 3 ) 2 Cl(CS)Ir(CS 3 ) (IV) a product, which can be converted to (PPh 3 ) 2 Ir(CS)Cl. Thermal decomposition of (II) and (IV) gives another (thiocarbonyl)iridium(III) product (V) which cannot be readily converted to (PPh 3 ) 2 Ir(CS)Cl. The carbonylation of (PPh 3 ) 2 IrClC 2 S 5 is described.
