C-H insertion thienyl products are selectively formed at early times of the interaction of the unsaturated 16e- fragment [(triphos)IrH] with 2,5-dimethylthiophene (Me2T), 2-methylbenzothiophene (MeBT) and 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene (Me2DBT) [triphos = MeC(CH2PPh2)3]. C-S insertion to give six-membered metallathiacycle products occurs as a thermal step only for Me2T and MeBT. The C-S insertion products are isolated as both kinetic and thermodynamic stereoisomers. The thermodynamic C-S insertion product of MeBT, endo-[(triphos)Ir(η3-S,C,C-S(C6H4)CH=C(Me)H)], has been characterized by X-ray diffraction studies.

The compound (1), has been reinvestigated and its X-ray crystal structure is reported.The crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pbca, with a 18.941(6), b 22.193(8), c 17.501(7) Angstroem, Z = 8.The structure was solved by the heavy atom method and refined by full-matrix least-squares to the conventional R factor value of 0.074 for 6462 reflections.The metal atom coordination is trigonal bipyramidal, with the three phosphorus atoms occupying one axial and two equatorial positions.The other equatorial position is occupied by CO while Cl is coordinated axially.Compound 1 readily undergoes a series of oxidative-addition reactions with H2, HCl and Cl2, giving + (4) + (3), and (IrCl3(triphos)> (5), respectively.Compounds (IrH(CO)(triphos)> (2) and nCl3-n(triphos)> (n = 1,2,3) have also been obtained from 1 and 5, respectively, by treating them with a variety of hydride sources.
