Abstract

The reaction of a terminal alkyne (RCCH) and an aniline (R′C 6H4NH2) with the dinuclear species [Cp*IrCl2]2 afforded cyclometalated amino-carbene derivatives Cp*Ir(Cl)[=C(CH2R)NHC6H 3R′] via a hydroamination and an orthometalation. The reaction pathway has been examined through deuterium labeling and computational studies.
