Formation of coordinated C-nitroso compounds by reaction of KIrCl5NO with Alkenes

摘要

Coordinated C-nitrosochloroalkanes were obtained by electrophilic addition of KIrCl5NO to cyclooctene or dicyclopentadiene; in the last case, the crystal structure of trans-IrCl4(CH3CN)(syn-1-chloro-2-nitroso-1,2-dihydrodicyclopentadiene) was determined by X-ray diffraction. Although the reaction between NOCl and alkenes is well-known, there are Very few examples of clean electrophilic addition of coordinated NO+ to alkenes.
