Oxidation of tetraphenylborate by hexachloroiridate(IV)

Abstract
The reaction, BPh4 + 2IrCl6 2–+ H2O → Ph2BOH + Ph2+ 2IrCl6 3–+ H+, has been shown to occur quantitatively in aqueous solution; the kinetics are interpreted in terms of a mechanism involving BPh4˙ radicals which are also proposed as intermediates in certain electrochemical and photochemical reactions of BPh4 .
