Abstract

(1,3‐bis[2,6‐bis[di(4‐tert‐butylphenyl)methyl]‐4‐methylphenyl]imidazol‐2‐ylidene)CuOPh [(IPr**)CuOPh] reacts with poly(methylhydrosiloxane) as the hydride donor to afford the monomeric (IPr**)CuH complex, which was spectroscopically characterized. The latter is in equilibrium in solution with [(IPr**)CuH] 2 , the dimer being exclusively present in the solid state. These results support the hypothesis that copper hydride aggregates dissociate in solution. In contrast, addition of pinacolborane to [(IPr**)AgOPh] at −40 °C allows the isolation of the monomeric (IPr**)AgH complex, which was crystallographically characterized.
