Rhodium and Iridium Amido Complexes Supported by Silyl Pincer Ligation: Ammonia N-H Bond Activation by a [PSiP]Ir Complex
Ir silyl pincer complexes insert into the N-H bonds of anilines and ammonia under mild conditions to form isotable [Cy-PSiP]Ir(H)(NHR) complexes that are resistant to N-H bond reductive elimination at room temperature, even in the presence of arenes, alkenes, and phosphines.
