(Received 5 December 2011; accepted 9 January 2012; online 14 January 2012)

In the title compound, [IrCl(C₈H₁₂)(C₁₇H₂₅N₃)], the Ir^I ion has a distorted square-planar coordination geometry. The N-heterocyclic carbene ligand has an extended S-shaped conformation. The butyl group was refined using a two-part 1:1 disorder model. In the crystal, three unique weak C—H⋯Cl contacts are present. Two of these form a motif described as R₂¹(6) in graph-set notation, while a third forms an R₂²(8) motif about a crystallographic inversion center. The result is a chain structure which extends parallel to the crystallographic a axis.

Comment top

The title compound, (I), was prepared as part of our ongoing research into complexes of rhodium and iridium with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands derived from 1,2,3-triazole (Nichol et al., 2009, 2010, 2011). The Ir center has an expected square planar conformation (Figure 1). The butyl group of the NHC ligand was refined using a two part disorder model, and both disorder components adopt an extended conformation. Three weak C–H···Cl contacts are present (Figure 2, Table 1). Two of these, involving H2 and H7A, combine to form a motif described in graph-set notion as R¹₂(6), while the third involves H18 and a symmetry related molecule to form an R²₂(8) motif, about an inversion center. The combination of these two motifs is a chain structure, connected by weak C–H···Cl contacts, which extends parallel to the crystallographic a axis.

Experimental top

Unless otherwise stated, all chemicals were purchased from Sigma Aldrich and Strem and used without further purification, in the dark, and under a nitrogen atmosphere. 1-Butyl-1,2,4-triazole (2.0 g, 16 mmol) and 4-tert-butylbenzyl bromide (4.10 g, 18.0 mmol) were refluxed in toluene (15 ml) for 3 d. After cooling, ether (50 ml) was added and the white solid that formed was filtered, washed with ether and air dried (79%). Transmetalation in CH₂Cl1₂ (10 ml) with 1-butyl-4-(4-tert-butylbenzyl)-1,2,4-triazolium bromide (0.166 g, 0.471 mmol), Ag₂O (0.0565 g, 0.244 mmol), and [Ir(cod)Cl1]₂ (0.1585 g, 0.236 mmol), gave a bright yellow solid (95%). X-ray quality crystals were grown from CH₂Cl1₂/Pentanes by slow diffusion.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F² against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F², conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F². The threshold expression of F² > σ(F²) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F² are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
