trans-Carbonyl(pentafluorophenyl-C)bis[(pentafluorophenyl)diphenylphosphine-P]iridium(I)

In trans-[Ir(C₆F₅){P(C₆F₅)(C₆H₅)₂}₂(CO)], the Ir-P and Ir-C distances are comparable to those of the triphenylphosphine analogue. F...F interactions appear to dominate the configuration, resulting in virtually eclipsed C₆F₅(Ir) and C₆F₅(P) rings.
