Abstract
Two iridium(I) complexes, [IrCl(COD)(PEt3) n ], n = 1 or 2, have been prepared and structurally characterised. Although [IrCl(COD)(PEt3)] is a known compound the spectroscopic data on both compounds is presented and discussed. In addition, the X-ray crystal structure of the previously described orthometallated isomer of Vaska's compound, [IrHCl(CO)(PPh3)η 2-PPh2(C6H4)], is reported to show the hydride ligand trans- to the carbonyl ligand.
