✅ Product Description
Chlorobis(cyclooctene)iridium(I) dimer is a valuable organometallic compound containing two iridium(I) centers, each coordinated by a chloride ligand and a cyclooctene ligand. It forms a dimeric structure, which makes it an excellent starting material for the preparation of various iridium complexes and catalysts.
This compound is widely used in homogeneous catalysis, particularly in hydrogenation, hydroboration, and C–H activation reactions. Due to its high reactivity and ligand substitution potential, it is a key precursor in the development of phosphine- and carbene-based iridium catalysts for industrial and academic applications.
