The potential of as a one-electron oxidising agent in organometallic chemistry has been evaluated.In complementary redox reactions with metallocenes, salts of the general from (1) are formed .In non-complementary reactions with platinum(0) and palladium(II) complexes some interesting mixed-metal mixed-valence complexes of the type (2) and (3) are formed.Complex (3) has been characterised by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.It crystallises in the space group P21/n of monoclinic symmetry in a cell of dimensions a = 12.218(2), b = 13.187(2), c = 17.832(2) Angstroem, β = 91.80(1) deg and Z = 4, the final R and R' being 0.046 and 0.051 respectively based on full-matrix refinement of 167 variables and 4273 observations.This structural determination confirms that (3) contains an octahedral iridium(III) unit linked to a square-planar palladium fragment by means of chloride bridges.
