摘要

Abstract: Alkyl transfer from organomercury by hexachloroiridate (IV) proceeds by a rate- determining electron transfer process, followed by the facile homolysis of the mercury-alkyl bond. The alkyl radicals so formed are trapped by a second IrCI&, either as alkyl chloride via chlorine transfer or alkene via alkyl carbonium ions. All of the mercury products as well as the reduced iridium (II1) species are characterized, and the stoichiometry of the cleavage ...
