Crystal structure of {(E)-2-[(phenylimino)methyl]phenolato-kappa N-2,O}bis[2-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl-kappa C-2(1),N]iridium(III) dichloromethane monosolvate

초록

In the title compound, [Ir(C11H8N)(2)(C13H10NO)]center dot CH2Cl2, the Ir-III ion is six-coordinated by two C,N-bidentate 2-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl ligands and one N,O-bidentate 2-[(phenylimino) methyl] phenolate anion, giving rise to a distorted octahedral environment. The C, N-bidentate ligands, in which the C and N atoms are statistically disordered over two sites and therefore both pairs of C and N atoms are trans and cis relative to each other, are almost perpendicular to each other [the dihedral angle between the least-square planes is 87.00 (4)degrees]. An intramolecular C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bond, as well as intermolecular C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interactions and pi-pi interactions, contribute to the stabilization of the molecular and crystal structure.
