Experimental realization of catalytic CH_4 hydroxylation predicted for an iridium NNC pincer complex, demonstrating thermal, protic, and oxidant stability

Abstract

A discrete, air, protic, and thermally stable (NNC)Ir(III) pincer complex was synthesized that catalytically activates the CH bond of methane in trifluoroacetic acid; functionalization using NaIO_4 and KIO_3 gives the oxy-ester
