Regioselective Formation of β‐Alkyl‐α‐phenyliridabenzenes via Unsymmetrical 3‐Vinylcyclopropenes: Probing Steric and Electronic Influences by Varying the Alkyl Ring Substituent

Abstract: The synthesis of unsymmetrical (Z)-1-alkyl-3-(2-iodovinyl)-2-phenyl-1-cyclopropenes (R=Me (8 a), Et (8 b), iPr (8 c), and tBu (8 d)) and their reactions with Vaska's complex [Ir(CO)Cl(PPh3)2] and its trimethylphosphine analogue [Ir(CO)Cl(PMe3)2] were investigated. Iridabenzvalene (13/20), iridabenzene (14/21), and/or eta(5)-cyclopentadienyliridium complexes (15/22) were obtained in modest yields and were fully characterized by spectroscopic means. X-ray structural data was secured for iridabenzvalene 13 d and … Show more

“…[66,68] As in the previous work, iridabenzvalenes such as 75 and 79 are formed in addition to iridabenzenes depending not on the phosphine, but on the nature of the R group. In certain cases, isomerization to the iridabenzene was found to be highly regioselective, forming the ortho-phenyl isomer 76 over the meta-phenyl isomer 77.…”

“…[64][65][66][67][68] In this case, several different ligands and metal complexes were used to produce a variety of structurally related iridabenzenes. This method of synthesis, which was inspired by the aforementioned studies from Hughes and coworkers, is derived from the well-known reactivity of cyclopropenes to form vinyl carbenes.…”

“…Crystal structures for several of these iridabenzvalene and rhodabenzvalene complexes have been reported [14][15][16][17]. A related structure has been reported for molybdenum(II), where the cyclopropene is tethered to the metal by a carboxylate group [18].…”
