The chemistry of formation of iridium clusters from mononuclear iridium diethylene complexes anchored in dealuminated Y zeolite, and their subsequent breakup—all including changes in the metal–metal, metal–support, and metal–ligand interactions—is demonstrated by time-resolved EXAFS, XANES, and IR spectroscopy.
