cis-Dichlorobis(di-2-pyridylamine)iridium(III) hexafluorophosphate
Abstract
The crystal structure of the title compound, [IrCl2(C10H9N3)2]PF6, contains a monomeric [IrCl2(bpya)2]+ cation (bpya is di-2-pyridylamine) and a hexafluorophosphate anion. The iridium(III) ion is coordinated by four N atoms from two bpya ligands [mean Ir—N distance = 2.049 (6) Å] and two Cl atoms [Ir—Cl = 2.344 (2) Å], forming a distorted octahedral environment.
