Chiral, facial tris-cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes, fac-Delta-Ir(pppy)(3), fac-Lambda-Ir(pppy)(3), fac-Lambda-IrL (where pppy is (8R,10R)-2-(2'-phenyl)-4,5-pinenopyridine and L is a tripodal ligand comprising three pppy moieties connected through a mesityl spacer) have been synthesized and characterized. In IrL, NMR and CD studies indicate that only one diastereomer is formed, with the A configuration at the metal center, whereas enantiopure pppy yields the fac-Lambda- and the fac-Delta-stereoisomer in a ratio 2:3. fac-Lambda-IrL was structurally characterized using X-ray crystallography.

Abstract
Chiral, facial tris-cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes, fac-Delta-Ir(pppy)(3), fac-Lambda-Ir(pppy)(3), fac-Lambda-IrL (where pppy is (8R,10R)-2-(2'-phenyl)-4,5-pinenopyridine and L is a tripodal ligand comprising three pppy moieties connected through a mesityl spacer) have been synthesized and characterized. In IrL, NMR and CD studies indicate that only one diastereomer is formed, with the A configuration at the metal center, whereas enantiopure pppy yields the fac-Lambda- and the fac-Delta-stereoisomer in a ratio 2:3. fac-Lambda-IrL was structurally characterized using X-ray crystallography. The luminescence properties including CPL, of the three complexes and their sensitivity to dioxygen were examined.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
