Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of [bis-(di-phenyl-phosphan-yl)methane-κP]chloridobis-[2-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl-κ² N,C ¹]iridium(III).

ABSTRACT: The title Ir^III complex, [Ir(C₁₁H₈N)₂Cl(C₂₅H₂₂P₂)], was synthesized from the substitution reaction between the (ppy)₂Ir(μ-Cl)₂Ir(ppy)₂ (ppy = deprotonated 2-phenyl-pyridine, C₁₁H₈N^-) dimer and 1,1-bis-(di-phenyl-phosphan-yl)methane (dppm, C₂₅H₂₂P₂) under an argon gas atmosphere for 20 h. The Ir^III atom is coordinated by two C,N-bidentate ppy anions, a unidentate dppm ligand and a chloride anion in a distorted octa-hedral IrC₂N₂PCl arrangement. The N donor atoms of the ppy ligands are mutually trans while the C atoms are cis. Intra-molecular aromatic π-π stacking b
