Bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)diiridium(I) dichloride is a well-defined iridium(I) precatalyst featuring two 1,5-cyclooctadiene (COD) ligands and a diiridium(I) core with two bridging chloride counterions. It is a powerful precatalyst for a wide range of catalytic transformations, including C-H activation, hydrogenation, and borylation reactions. The compound is bench-stable and soluble in most organic solvents. This precatalyst offers excellent functional group tolerance and high catalytic activity, making it a valuable tool in pharmaceutical synthesis and organic chemistry research.
