Crystal structure of fac-[2-(4-methyl-5-phenyl­pyridin-2-yl)phenyl-κ² C ¹,N]bis­[2-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl-κ² C ¹,N]iridium(III)

The Ir^III atom in the title mol­ecule adopts a distorted octa­hedral C₃N₃ coordination environment, being C,N-chelated by two 2-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl ligands and one 2-(4-phenyl-5-methyl­pyridin-2-yl)phenyl ligand.

Abstract

In the title compound, [Ir(C₁₁H₈N)₂(C₁₈H₁₄N)], the Ir^III ion adopts a distorted octa­hedral coordination environment defined by three C,N-chelating ligands, one stemming from a 2-(4-phenyl-5-methyl­pyridin-2-yl)phenyl ligand and two from 2-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl ligands, arranged in a facial manner. The Ir^III ion lies almost in the equatorial plane [deviation = 0.0069 (15) Å]. In the crystal, inter­molecular π–π stacking inter­actions, as well as inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions, are present, leading to a three-dimensional network.

Chemical context  

Cyclo­metallated iridium(III) complexes with the chelating ligand 2-phenyl­pyridine (CN) are of great inter­est in phospho­rescence organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) due to their high quantum efficiency and easy tuning emission energy (Kang et al., 2013 ▸). In general, iridium(III) complexes with chelating CN ligands can be divided into two groups, homoleptic and heteroleptic complexes, according to the coordination environment of the central Ir^III atom. The structural characteristics involving other chemical/electronic properties for both homoleptic Ir(CN)₃ and heteroleptic Ir(CN)₂(L X) complexes, where L X is a monoanionic OO or NO ligand, have been well explored over the past two decades (Chi & Chou, 2010 ▸). However, reports of the mol­ecular and crystal structures of heteroleptic Ir^III compounds with the same chelating modes, viz. Ir(CN)₂(CN)′, are very scarce compared to those for Ir(CN)₂(L X) (Jung et al., 2012 ▸; Natori et al., 2013 ▸). Herein, we describe the structure of the title Ir^III complex, fac-{2-[(4-phenyl-5-meth­yl)pyridine-2-yl]phenyl-κ ² C ¹,N}bis­[2-(pyridine-2-yl)phenyl-κ ² C ¹,N]iridium(III), which was synthesized by the reaction of [(CN)₂Ir(μ-Cl)]₂ and 4-methyl-2,5-di­phenyl­pyridine in the presence of Ag^I.

Structural commentary  

In the title compound, the asymmetric unit comprises of one Ir^III ion, two 2-phenyl­pyridine ligands, and one 4-methyl-2,5-di­phenyl­pyridine ligand (Fig. 1 ▸). The Ir^III ion is six-coordin­ated by the three C,N-bidentate ligands, giving rise to a distorted octa­hedral coordination environment with bond angles falling in the range 79.27 (12) to 97.37 (13)°. As shown in Table 1 ▸, the Ir—C and Ir—N bond lengths in the title compound are within the ranges reported for similar Ir^III compounds (Jung et al., 2012 ▸). The pyridyl N atoms of the three ligands are arranged in a fac-configuration around the octa­hedrally coordinated Ir^III ion. The equatorial plane is defined by the N1/N3/C14/C11 atoms, the mean deviation from the least-squares plane being 0.081 Å. The Ir^III ion lies almost in the equatorial plane with a deviation of 0.0069 (15) Å. Within the 2-(pyridine-2-yl)phenyl ligands, the dihedral angles between the aromatic rings are 5.6 (2) (between rings N1/C1–C5 and C6–C11) and 5.9 (2)° (between rings N3/C30–C34 and C35–C40). Within the 2-[(4-phenyl-5-meth­yl)pyridine-2-yl]phenyl ligand, the dihedral angles between the central pyridine ring and the phenyl rings at either end are 1.3 (2) and 43.84 (12)° for the C13–C18 and C22–C27 rings, respectively.

Supra­molecular features  

Inter­molecular π–π stacking inter­actions [Cg1⋯Cg1ⁱ = 3.838 (2) Å; Cg1 is the centroid of the C22–C27 ring; symmetry code: (i) −x, −y + 2, −z] occur in the crystal structure of the title compound (Fig. 2 ▸). In addition, weak inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions (Table 2 ▸) contribute to the stabilization of the crystal structure.

Synthesis and crystallization  

The ligand 4-methyl-2,5-di­phenyl­pyridine was synthesized according to a literature procedure (Zhou et al., 2013 ▸). The title Ir^III complex was also prepared according to a literature protocol (Jung et al., 2012 ▸). Crystals of the title complex were obtained by allowing a di­chloro­methane/hexane solution to evaporate slowly at room temperature.

Refinement  

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 3 ▸. A reflection affected by the beamstop (100) was omitted from the final refinement. All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with d(C—H) = 0.95 Å for Csp ²–H, and 0.98 Å for methyl H atoms. For all H atoms, U _iso(H) = 1.2U _eq of the parent atom.

Special details

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
