Abstract: Evidence for key σ-complex intermediates in the hydrogenolysis of the irdium methyl bond of (PONOP)Ir(H)(Me)⁺ (1) [PONOP = 2,6 bis(di-tert-butylphosphinito)pyridine] has been obtained. The initially formed η²-H₂ complex, 2, was directly observed upon treatment of 1 with H₂, and evidence for reversible formation of a σ-methane complex, 5, was obtained through deuterium scrambling from η²-D₂ in 2-d₂ into the methyl group of 2 prior to the methane loss. This sequence of reactions was modeled by density functional theory calculations. The transition state for formation of 5 form 2 showed significant shortening of the Ir H bond for the hydrogen being transferred; no true Ir(V) trihydride intermediate could be located. Barrier to methane loss from 2 were compared to those of 1 and the six-coordinate species (PONOP)Ir(H)(Me)(Co)⁺ and (PONOP)Ir(H)-(Me)(Cl).
