QUICK LINKS
Bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)diiridium(I) dichloride is a catalyst in organic synthesis, particularly in the hydrogenation of alkenes and alkynes. It functions as a source of iridium in catalytic reactions, facilitating the addition of hydrogen to unsaturated organic compounds. The compound acts as a homogeneous catalyst, participating in the hydrogenation process by coordinating with the unsaturated substrate and facilitating the transfer of hydrogen atoms. Through its interaction with the substrate, it promotes the reduction of double or triple bonds to form saturated hydrocarbons. Bis(1,5-Cyclooctadiene)Diiridium(I) Dichloride′s mechanism of action involves the coordination of the iridium center with the unsaturated organic molecule, leading to the activation of hydrogen and subsequent addition to the substrate. In this way, Bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)diiridium(I) dichloride plays a role in promoting hydrogenation reactions in organic synthesis.
