The reaction of 4'-functionalized 6'-phenyl- 2,2'-bipyridine ligands (L- n) with the dimer [(ppy)2IrCl]2 (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine anion) and subsequent counterion exchange affords a new series of cationic orthometallated iridium(III) complexes, [(ppy)2Ir(L-n)][PF6] (1-5), which have been characterized by spectroscopic methods. These complexes have a large shape anisotropy and significant amphiphilic character. The crystal structure of 4 has been determined by X-ray diffraction.
