Reaction of singlet oxygen with Ir(i) and Rh(i) thiolato complexes: oxidative addition vs. S-oxidationElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: experimental crystallographic details. See http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/cc/b1/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.
