Cover Feature: Flexible Coordination of SacNac Ligands in Iridium Complexes and their Application to Catalytic Hydroboration (Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. 30/2024)

Abstract

The Cover Feature shows working miners, thus reflecting the importance of mining in Guanajuato (México) for the last five centuries. As an analogy to these efforts and their success, our contribution shows for the first time that Ir^I and Ir^III organometallic precursors can be bonded to the SacNac ligand, in bi- and monodentate flexible coordination modes. A fruitful catalytical hydroboration of styrene with neopentylglycolborane is reported too. More information can be found in the Research Article by J. Campos, O. Serrano, C. Cristobal and co-workers.
