Challenges in cyclometalation : steric effects leading to competing pathways and η1,η2-cyclometalated iridium(iii) complexes

The iridation of (R)-N,N-dimethyl-1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine in the presence of a base afforded an assortment of products ranging from organic molecules to coordinated systems and cyclometalated complexes. The transformation affirmed the postulation where steric effects within the coordination sphere...

description The iridation of (R)-N,N-dimethyl-1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine in the presence of a base afforded an assortment of products ranging from organic molecules to coordinated systems and cyclometalated complexes. The transformation affirmed the postulation where steric effects within the coordination sphere favor a β-hydride elimination-like decomposition pathway, competing alongside ortho-metalation, thus leading to iminium intermediates. The same procedure also generated an unprecedented carbocyclic η1,η2-cycloiridated species that could not be attained from the direct cyclometalation of its organic ligand.
