Sammendrag
Scalar-relativistic DFT calculations with multiple exchangecorrelation functionals and large basis sets foreshadow the existence of
stable iridium(VII)−corrole terminal carbide derivatives. For the parent
compound Ir[Cor](C), OLYP/STO-TZ2P calculations predict a short Ir−
C bond distance of 1.69 Å, a moderately domed macrocycle with no
indications of ligand noninnocence, a surprisingly low electron affinity of
∼1.1 eV, and a substantial singlet−triplet gap of ∼1.8 eV. These results,
and their essential invariance with respect to the choice of the exchangecorrelation functional, lead us to posit that Ir(VII)−corrole terminal
carbide complexes should be isolable and indefinitely stable under ambient
conditions.
