The air-stable complex Cp*(PMe3)IrCl2 efficiently catalyzes the exchange of deuterium from D2O into both activated and unactivated C-H bonds of organic molecules without added acid or stabilizers. Selectivity is observed in many cases, with activation of primary C-H bonds occurring preferentially. A number of new stoichiometric transformations involving the iridiym catalyst precursor are also presented, including an ozidation-decarbonylation reaction with primary alcohols. Copyright
