Crystal structures of the [IrIII{C(C4H6O2)(dppm)-κ3 P,C,O}(dppm)H](CF3O3S)2 and [IrIII{C(C4H6O2)(dppm)-κ2 P,C}(CO)(dppm)H](CF3O3S)2 phosphorus ylide complexes, generated by a Wittig-type carbon-carbon coupling reaction of a carbodiphospho-rane PCP ligand system.

ABSTRACT: The reaction of [IrIII{C(dppm)2-κ3 P,C,P'}ClH(NH3C2)]Cl with ethyl diazo-acetate, a well known C=C coupling reagent, leads to the formation of a C=C unit, accompanied by N2 abstraction, reorganization of a dppm subunit and, considered as a whole, to the transformation of the PCP pincer carbodi-phospho-rane system to a phospho-rus ylide ligand. After removal of the halogenides, the iridium center is stabilized by the carbonyl O atom through the formation of a five-membered chelate ring. A PCO pincer ligand system is thereby generated, which coordinates the iridium(III) atom threefold in a facial manner. The phospho-rus electron-donor atoms and the ylide carbon atom of the resulting [IrIII
