Abstract
Two iridium acetylacetonate complexes bearing axial bromide-substituted pyridine (3-bromopyridine, 1 and 4-bromopyridine, 2) are synthesized and their crystal structures are determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. In both complexes, a distorted octahedral geometry of the central Ir(III) atom is formed by four oxygen atoms of two acetylacetone ligands, a carbon atom of one acetylacetone ligand, and a nitrogen atom of bromide-substituted pyridine.
