[Ir(COD)(CO)2(L)]ClO4 (1) and [Ir(COD)-(CO)(L)2]ClO4 (2) (COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene; L = PPh3 (a), AsPh3 (b)) have been prepared from the solid-state reactions of [Ir(COD)(L)(PhCN)]ClO4 (3) and [Ir(COD)-(L)2]ClO4 (4), respectively, with CO (1 atm) at 25°C. The products 1 and 2 have been characterized by conventional analytical and spectroscopic methods as well as single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis for [Ir(COD)-(CO)2(PPh3)]ClO4 (1a) and [Ir(COD)(CO)2(asPh3)] ClO4 (1b).

The preparation of iridium alkoxide complexes trans-ROIr(CO)(PPh3)2 and their carbonylation to carboalkoxy complexes ROC(O)Ir(CO)2(PPh3)2 are described for R = Me, n-Pr, t-Bu, and Ph. The preparations involve metathetical reactions between trans-Ir(CO)(PPh3)2Cl and NaOR. In the carbonylation an intermediate can be identified by infrared and conductivity studies as [Ir(CO)3(PPh3)2+][OR-]. Thus a mechanism involving alkoxide displacement by CO and subsequent nucleophilic attack of alkoxide on a CO of the cation is indicated. The complex trans-PhOIr(CO)(PPh3)2 crystallizes in the centrosymmetric monoclinic space group P21/c (no. 14) with a = 15.790 (3) ?, b = 11.461 (3), c = 19.986 (5) ?, β = 100.326 (18)°, V = 3558 (2) ?3, and Z = 4. Diffraction data (Mo Kα, 2θ = 5-55°) were collected with a Syntex P21 automated four-circle diffractometer, and the structure was solved and refined to RF = 6.2% and RwF = 4.6% for all 8220 reflections (RF = 3.8% and RwF = 4.1% for those 5981 reflections with |F0| > 6σ(|F0|)). The iridium atom has the expected square-planar geometry with Ir-P(1) = 2.328 (1) ?, Ir-P(2) = 2.344 (1) ?, Ir-CO = 1.795 (5) ?, and Ir-OPh = 2.049 (4) ?. The phenoxide ligand is "bent" with 〈Ir-O-C(ipso) = 126.5 (3)°.
