(3-Allyloxypicolinato-²N,O²)bis[3,5-difluoro-2-(2-pyridyl)phenyl-²C¹,N]iridium(III)

Y.-L. Zhao and J. Meng

Abstract: The title complex, [Ir(C₁₁H₆F₂N)₂(C₉H₈NO₃)], consists of one Ir^III ion, two C,N-bidentate 3,5-difluoro-2-(2-pyridyl)phenyl (F₂ppy) ligands and one N,O-bidentate 3-allyloxypicolinate (pic-3-Oall) ligand. The Ir^III ion is hexacoordinated by two C atoms and two N atoms from the F₂ppy ligands and one N atom and one carboxylate O atom from the pic-3-Oall ligand, displaying a distorted octahedral geometry. In the crystal structure, weak intermolecular C-HF and C-HO hydrogen bonds link the complex molecules into a three-dimensional supramolecular structure.
