Rationalizing and Disrupting Fluxional Processes in Agostically Stabilized 14-Electron Alkyliridium Hydride Complexes

We have investigated the fundamental patterns of reactivity for the cationic IrIII complexes [(6-Mes)(6-Mes′)Ir(H)]+ and [(7-Mes)(7-Mes')Ir(H)]+ [6-Mes, 7-Mes = ring-expanded N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands, ' indicates that NHC is tethered through an iridium-bound CH2 group], each of...
