Iridium acetylacetonate is the iridium coordination complex with the formula Ir(O 2 C 5 H 7) 3, which is sometimes known as Ir(acac) 3. The molecule has D 3 -symmetry. [ 2 ] It is a yellow-orange solid that is soluble in organic solvents.
Applications include their use as NMR "shift reagents" and as catalysts for organic synthesis, and precursors to industrial hydroformylation catalysts. C 5 H 7 O − 2 in some cases also binds to metals through the central carbon atom; this bonding mode is more common for the third-row transition metals such as platinum(II) and iridium(III).
Ruthenium(III) acetylacetonate is a coordination complex with the formula Ru(O 2 C 5 H 7) 3. O 2 C 5 H 7 − is the ligand called acetylacetonate. This compound exists as a dark red solid that is soluble in most organic solvents. [3] It is used as a precursor to other compounds of ruthenium.
3 in hydrochloric acid, is often used as a starting material for the synthesis of other Ir(III) compounds. [2] Another compound used as a starting material is ammonium hexachloroiridate(III), (NH 4) 3 IrCl 6. In the presence of air, iridium metal dissolves in molten alkali-metal cyanides to produce the Ir(CN) 3− 6 (hexacyanoiridate) ion.
Indium acetate is an acetate of indium, with the chemical formula In(CH 3 COO) 3. It is soluble in water, acetic acid and mineral acids. [ 1 ] It is the precursor of indium-containing compounds such as the solar cell materials CuInS 2 [ 2 ] and indium phosphide quantum dots .
Trimesityliridium is a pyramidal iridium(III) complex that crystallizes as a red-brown solid with the formula Ir(C 9 H 11) 3. [1] It is most often used as an oxygen atom transfer catalyst in concert with oxotrimesityliridium, the product it forms readily when exposed to O 2 .
Ruthenium(III) acetate, commonly known as basic ruthenium acetate, [1] describes a family of salts where the cation has the formula [Ru 3 O(O 2 CCH 3) 6 (OH 2) 3] +.A representative derivative is the dihydrate of the tetrafluoroborate salt [Ru 3 O(O 2 CCH 3) 6 (OH 2) 3]BF 4 (H 2 O) 2, which is the source of the data in the table above.

The Cativa process is a method for the production of acetic acid by the carbonylation of methanol. The technology, which is similar to the Monsanto process, was developed by BP Chemicals and is under license by BP Plc. [1]: 293–307 The process is based on an iridium-containing catalyst, such as the complex [Ir(CO) 2 I 2] − (1).
