Formation of indenyl dihydride complexes from an iridium polyhydride complex. Molecular structures of ({eta}{sup +5}-C{sub 9}H{sub 7})IrH{sub 2}(PPr{sup i}{sub 3}) and the {eta}{sup +3}-indenyl intermediate ({eta}{sup +3}-C{sub 9}H{sub 7})IrH{sub 2}(PPr{sup i}{sub 3}){sub 2}

The reaction of IrH{sub 5}(PPr{sup i}{sub 3}){sub 2} and indene at 60 {degree}C leads to the formation of ({eta}{sup +3}-C{sub 9}H{sub 7})IrH{sub 2}(PPr{sup i}{sub 3}){sub 2} and ({eta}{sup +5}-C{sub 9}H{sub 7})IrH{sub 2}(PPr{sup i}{sub 3}). The molecular structures of these products have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The {eta}{sup +3}-indenyl complex is stable only in the solid state and converts to the {eta}{sup +5}-indenyl complex product upon dissolution. 8 refs., 4 figs.
