Article Abstract

Two new iridium(III) complexes were synthesized and fully characterized, [(bo)2Ir(pzpy)] (2a) and [(bo)2Ir(pzpyz)] (2b) (where bo = 2-phenylbenzo[d]oxazole, pzpy = 2-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine, pzpyz = 2-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyrazine). The single crystal structures of 2a-2b have been determined. Considering the relationship between their structures and photophysical properties, DFT calculations have been used to further support this inference. These Ir(III) complexes emit from the excited state of 3MLCT/3LLCT in the green and yellow region, and the quantum yields in the degassed CH2Cl2 solution at room temperature are 35.2% and 46.1%. Theoretical and experimental results show that iridium(III) complexes 2a-2b are promising phosphorescent material.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) arises from mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Monitoring I transport serves as a critical approach for evaluating CFTR function in live cells, providing a foundation for the development of diagnostic tools and therapeutic treatments. Here, we report an iridium(iii) complex () for the selective and pH-independent imaging of intracellular I.

In this study, we report the design and synthesis of two luminescent polypyridyl iridium(III) complexes, [Ir(C^N)(N^N)]Cl (Ir1 and Ir2), for the simultaneous detection of Al⁺ and F ions. In these complexes, C^N represents a cyclometalated 2-phenylbenzimidazole (Ph-benz) ligand, while N^N corresponds to 2,2'-bipyridine derivatives, specifically, 2,2'-bipyridine-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid in Ir1 and diethyl[2,2'-bipyridine]-4,4'-dicarboxylate in Ir2. The interaction of the ─NH group of Ph-benz and the ─COOH group of the bipyridine ligand with F and Al⁺ ion induces distinct photoluminescence changes, enabling selective and sensitive detection of both analytes.

The supramolecular host-guest interaction between heteroleptic iridium(iii) complexes and cucurbit[10]uril (Q[10]) in an aqueous medium was investigated in this work. Both studied iridium complexes, [Ir(ppy)(bpy-(CHO))] (complex 1) and [Ir(ppy)(bpy-(COOH))] (complex 2), possessed two phenylpyridine ligands and a single R-bipyridine ligand. The formation of the encapsulated species (Q[10]·1 and Q[10]·2) was demonstrated by H NMR and luminescence studies.

Four new charged iridium(III) 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl (Cp*) complexes, , of the type [Cp*Ir()(PTA)](PF) (where = functionalized β-ketoiminate ligands and PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane), have been successfully synthesized and characterized. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic data have been obtained for all compounds and confirm a typical -octahedral half-sandwich geometry. Cytotoxicity values have been determined against a range of cancerous and noncancerous cell lines and highlight high cytotoxicity and selectivity toward breast cancers.

Peroxynitrite (ONOO), a strong oxidizing agent, has an important function in the pathogenesis of various diseases, including cardiovascular, inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. Specifically, mitochondrial ONOO exacerbates liver injury by driving oxidative/nitrative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, ultimately triggering dual apoptotic-necrotic hepatocyte death pathways. ONOO and its functions have been widely studied by fluorescence imaging probes, owing to their strong sensitivity, non-invasiveness, and real-time ability.
