Abstract

The reactivity of a number of Ir^I complexes towards CO ₂ is explored using [Ir(NHC)(OH)] as a key synthon. CO₂ insertion into Ir-O and Ir-N bonds proved facile, yielding a number of Ir ^I-carbonates and -carbamates. Most importantly, reaction between CO₂ and Ir^I-OH led to isolation of the novel [{Ir ^I}₂-(μ-κ¹:κ²-CO ₃)] complex.
