Bis(η2-cyclooctene)(N,N-dimethyldithiocarbamato-S,S′)iridium(I), the first example of a tetracoordinate IrIcomplex containing two π-bonded monoolefin ligands
摘要:
The title compound consists of [Ir(C3H6NS2)(C8H14)(2)] molecules lying on positions with site symmetry 2. Both the coordination plane, defined by the metal, S atoms and the two midpoints of the olefinic bonds, and the dithiocarbamate chelate system are essentially planar. The orientation of the coordinated C=C bonds with respect to the coordination plane is close to perpendicular [(C=C,Ir)/(Ir,S,S) interplanar angle: 79.4 (2)degrees]. The Ir-C distances are 2.144 (3) and 2.155 (3) Angstrom, and the Ir-S bond length is 2.3661 (8) Angstrom. Due to pi -coordination, the olefinic bonds are elongated to 1.424 (5) Angstrom. The cyclooctene ligands adopt a crown conformation.
