Abstract

A reaction between [(COD) IrCl]₂ (COD is cycloocta-1,5-diene), HCl and indene failed to provide the hoped for chloridoindenyliridium dimer, but instead produced the title compound, [IrCl₃(CH₃CN)(C₈H₁₂)], which is an octahedral complex of iridium(III) with a chelating cycloocta-1,5-diene ligand, three chloride ligands in a fac arrangement, and one acetonitrile ligand. Attempts to devise a rational synthesis for the title compound were unsuccessful.
