mer-Hydridotris(tri­methyl­phosphane-κP)(d-valinato-κ(2) N,O)iridium hexa­fluorido­phosphate di­chloro­methane 0.675-solvate

The title compound, [Ir(C(5)H(10)NO(2))H(C(3)H(9)P)(3)]PF(6)·0.675CH(2)Cl(2), an iridium compound with a meridional arrangement of PMe(3) groups, O,N-bidentate coordination of d-valine and with a hydride ligand trans to the N atom is compared with the l-valine complex reported previously. As expected, the complexes from the corresponding l and d isomers of valine crystallize in enanti­omorphic space groups (P4(3) and P4(1), respectively). In the crystal, N—H⋯O and N—H⋯F hydrogen bonding is observed, the N—H to carbonyl oxygen hydrogen bond producing a helical motif that proceeds along the 4(1) screw of the c axis.
