Abstract
Reaction of [Ir(COD)(py–ItBu)]+ (py–ItBu = 3-tert-butyl-1-picolylimidazol-2-ylidene) with acetonitrile results in reversible intramolecular C–H bond activation of the NHC ligand and formation of [Ir(η2:η1-C8H13)(py–ItBu′)(NCMe)]+. Coordinated COD acts as an internal hydride acceptor and acetonitrile coordination offsets the otherwise unfavourable thermodynamics of the process.
