Abstract

The solution structures of the two all‐cis stereoisomers of IrH~2~(COD)((−)‐chiraphos) and the four all‐cis stereoisomers of IrH~2~(COD)((−)‐norphos) [COD = cycloocta‐1,5‐diene, (−)‐chiraphos = 2__S__,3__S__‐bis(diphenyl‐ phosphino)butane, (−)‐norphos = 2__R__,3__R__‐bis(diphenylphosphino)norbornene] were assigned on the basis of various one‐ and two‐dimensional correlation methods. The rationalization of a specifically observed scalar coupling interaction between one of the hydrides and a methylene proton of the cyclooctadiene moiety required an assignment of all the relevant protons including their stereochemical relationship. Analogous long‐range coupling pathways were also found for the heteronuclear interactions ^n^J(P,H) and an interpretation of the origin of these scalar couplings is provided in the form of an expansion of the known geometric dependence of allylic and homoallylic couplings.
