Abstract
Reaction of [IrCl{(S)-binap}(PPh3)] {(S)-3} with methanol gave one of the d iastereomers of the cis,mer-dihydride, cis,mer-OC-6-44-A-[IrCl(H-2){(S)-bin ap}(PPh3)] {(S)4a} stereoselectively, the structure of which was determined crystallographically, whereas the reaction of (S)-3 with H2 produced a 1: 1 mixture of the diastereomers of the cis,mer-dihydride, (S)-4a and cis,mer -OC-6-44-C-[IrCl(H-2){(S)-binap}(PPh3)] {(S)4b}.
