[(1,2,5,6-η)-Cyclo-octa-1,5-diene](4-isopropyl-1-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl-idene)(tri-phenyl-phos-phane)iridium(I) tetra-fluorido-borate di-chloro-methane 0.8-solvate.

ABSTRACT: A new triazole-based N-heterocyclic carbene iridium(I) cationic complex with a tetra-fluorido-borate counter-anion, [Ir(C₈H₁₂)(C₁₈H₁₅P)(C₆H₁₁N₃)]BF₄·0.8CH₂Cl₂, has been synthesized and structurally characterized. The central Ir^I atom of the cationic complex has a distorted square-planar coordination environment, formed by a bidentate cyclo-octa-1,5-diene (COD) ligand, an N-heterocyclic carbene, and a tri-phenyl-phosphane ligand. The crystal structure comprises C-H⋯π(ring) inter-actions that orient the phenyl rings; non-classical hydrogen-bonding inter-actions between the cationic complex and the tetra-fluorido-borate anion are also present. The complex crystallizes in a
