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.
