    Iridium compounds are used as catalysts in the Cativa process for carbonylation of methanol to produce acetic acid. [92] [93] Iridium complexes are often active for asymmetric hydrogenation both by traditional hydrogenation. [94] and transfer hydrogenation. [95] This property is the basis of the industrial route to the chiral herbicide (S ...
