Reaction of singlet oxygen with Ir(I) and Rh(I) thiolato complexes: oxidative addition vs. S-oxidation

Chem Commun (Camb). 2002 Mar 21:(6):570-1. doi: 10.1039/b110396m.

Abstract

Singlet oxygen reacts with Ir(I) and Rh(I) thiolato complexes to form the corresponding Ir(III) and Rh(III) peroxo thiolato complexes which do not undergo intramolecular oxidation of the thiolate moiety.
