Synthesis and Reactivity of Polysulfido Metal Complexes
The final area of thesis research is the investigation iridium polysulfido complexes. Desulfurization of (NBun4 )Ir(S6)3 with excess PPh3 yields a 30 e-- dimer Ir2S2(PPh4) 4. Crystallographic analysis of Ir2S2(PPh 4)4 reveals a bitetrahedral structure with a pair of mu-S atoms. Two equiv of H2 add …
