Irdium complexes
Johnson Matthey offers a selection of iridium complexes for various applications. JM’s iridium complex products can be combined with a variety of ligand classes such as phosphines, cyclopentadienyls, NHCs and polypyridyl ligands to form active Ir catalysts for a variety of applications. Example applications include asymmetric hydrogenation (1), asymmetric C-C and C-N bond formation, cyclometallation, direct C-H borylation (2) and photoredox catalysis (3).
