Abstract
The neutral chloro complexes [(η<sup>5</sup>-C<sub>5</sub>Me<sub>5</sub>)M(η<sup>2</sup>-NC<sub>9</sub>H<sub>6</sub>O)Cl] as well as the cationic aqua complexes [(η<sup>5</sup>-C<sub>5</sub>Me<sub>5</sub>)M(η<sup>2</sup>-NC<sub>9</sub>H<sub>6</sub>O)(H<sub>2</sub>O)]<sup>+</sup> (M = Rh, Ir) have been synthesized from the reaction of the dinuclear precursors [(η<sup>5</sup>-C<sub>5</sub>Me<sub>5</sub>)MCl<sub>2</sub>]<sub>2</sub> and 8-hydroxyquinoline. The single crystal X-ray structure analysis of [(η<sup>5</sup>-C<sub>5</sub>Me<sub>5</sub>)Ir(η<sup>2</sup>-NC<sub>9</sub>H<sub>6</sub>O)Cl] reveals for these complexes a piano-stool arrangement with the aromatic ligand, the chelating oxinato ligand and the terminal chloro or aqua ligand surrounding the metal center in a pseudo-tetrahedral fashion.
