Abstract: In the title compound, [Ir(C₁₁H₈N)₂(C₁₂H₁₀NO)(H₂O)]·0.5C₂H₆O₂, the iridium center is coordinated by two N atoms and two C atoms from two 2-(2-pyridyl)phenyl (ppy) ligands, one N atom from the N-(1-naphthyl)acetamide ligand and one water O atom, forming a distorted octahedral environment. Molecules are linked by intermolecular O-HO hydrogen bonds formed by the coordinated water molecule and the amide O atom of the N-(1-naphthyl)acetamide ligands.
