Abstract
The mixed Ir–Cu complex, [IrCl(PPh3)2(dppn)(NO)CuCl][PF6]2, [dppn = 3,6-bis(2′-pyridyl)pyridazine], has been synthesised starting from [Ir(NO)(dppn)3(PPh3)2][PF6]2, a complex with a linearly bound nitrosyl group; X-ray structural analysis has shown that both dppn and nitrosyl ligands bridge the metal atom and this is the first example of a nitrosyl group bridging two different metals.
