A suspension of the o -quinone monoimide 1,2-N(C(O)-4-C 6 H 4 NO 2 )O-2,4-C 6 H 4 Cl 2 and IrCl(CO)PPh 3 ) 2 in CH 2 Cl 2 was stirred for 3 days at room temperature. After careful chromatography two compounds were isolated, both with the empirical formula Ir(1,2-N(C(O)-4C 6 H 4 NO 2 )O-2,4-C 6 H 2 Cl 2 )Cl(CO)(PPh 3 ) 2 . These were shown by 1 H, 13 C and 31 P NMR and IR spectroscopy to be two of the twelve geometrical isomers possible for this complex. X-Ray crystallography confirmed these structures and showed that one isomer has cis and the other trans triphenylphosphine ligands.
