61. Several base-induced dehydrochlorination reactions of transition metal complexes have been reviewed: Grushin, V. V. Acc. Chem. Res, 1993, 26, 279-286, and references herein.
62. During review, one referee pointed out that complexes 7 are probably not Ir(V) tetrahydrides but rather Ir(III) dihydride/dihydrogen adducts. We totally agree, on the basis of the observations made for the Ir(III) dihydride complexes 6: These complexes already exhibit (nonclassical) dihydrogen binding character (and likewise Ir(I) character) due to the substantial VHD coupling constants in their 6-di isotopomers (vide infra). However, for the sake of simplicity and the lack of hard experimental evidence we will refer to complexes 7 in a "stoichiometric" way as tetrahydrides. A more detailed discussion of the binding mode in the dihydride complexes 6 will be published elsewhere,
