Abstract
The title complex compound, [Ir(C27H29N5) Cl(C10H8N2)](CF3SO3)(2), was synthesized for a study of iridium(III)/periodate redox systems in water. The coordination geometry of the complex can be best described as distorted octahedral, with an r. m. s. deviation of 8.8 (8)% from ideal octahedral rectangular geometry. In the crystal, C-H center dot center dot center dot O and C-H center dot center dot center dot F interactions between the complex cation and the trifluoromethanesulfonate anions are observed, as well as a C-H center dot center dot center dot Cl intermolecular interaction between neighboring complex cations. In addition, the benzimidazole ring systems display parallel-displaced pi-pi stacking with centroid-centroid distances of 3.585 (3)-3.907 (3) angstrom. One of the two trifluoromethanesulfonate anions is disordered over two orientations with an occupancy ratio of 0.582 (6): 0.418 (6). The title complex was characterized using FT-IR, cyclic voltammetry/rotating disc electrode polarography, fluorescence spectrometry, high resolution mass spectrometry, CHN elemental analysis and H-1 NMR spectroscopy.
