Abstract
The electrochemical oxidation of Ir(tdppcyme)(CO)Cl, tdppcyme= cis, cis-1,3,5-tris(di-phenylphosphine)- cis, cis-1,3,5-tris(methoxycarbonyl)cyclohexane, is investigated in dichloromethane–0.1 M tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate at Pt electrodes with cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and chronocoulometry, as well as preparative electrolysis. While the primary one-electron oxidation to Ir +II appears quasi-reversible in the electroanalytical experiments, the longer time scale of electrolysis allows the formation of an insoluble product by a follow-up reaction. By means of spectroscopic techniques as well as EXAFS and EDX experiments the structure of a dimeric di-μ-chloro di-iridium complex is deduced.
