Abstract

Two novel di(N-heterocyclic carbene) complexes of formula (μ-PyrIm-CH2-ImPyr)[IrCp*Cl]2(PF6)2 ( 1) and μ-MeIm-CH2( p-C6H2)CH2-ImMe[IrCp*Cl]2 ( 2) (Im = imidazol-2-ylidene) have been synthesised by transmetallation of the dicarbene ligand from the corresponding dicarbene silver complex, using [IrCp*(μ-Cl)Cl]2 as an iridium precursor. The structure of complex 2 has been determined by X-ray diffraction and is characterized by a double ortho-metallation of the p-xylylene bridge between the carbene units. Both complexes show good activity in the transfer hydrogenation of ketones to alcohols in 2-propanol. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
