A series of iridium(III) dimers were synthesized and their ability to interact with diethyldithiocarbamate for CS sensing was evaluated. Upon the addition of CS, diethylamine can capture CS to form diethyldithiocarbamate, which could chelate with the iridium(III) dimer to form a diethyldithiocarbamate iridium(III) complex, resulting in a yellow luminescence. Dimer 8 exhibited a maximum 18-fold of luminescence enhancement upon the addition of CS. The luminescence signal of the detection system could be readily distinguished from the highly fluorescent media using time-resolved emission spectroscopy (TRES). The capability of the system to determine CS level in water samples was also demonstrated.

We report the synthesis and characterization of two chiral binuclear iridium(III) complexes ( and ) prepared from enantiopure building blocks [μ-Cl(Δ-Ir(C^N))] and [μ-Cl(Λ-Ir(C^N))]. These building blocks have been obtained by chiral preparative high-performance liquid chromatography of the neutral iridium(III) complex (piv = 2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5-dionate) followed by selective degradation of the ancillary ligand. For comparison purposes, we also synthesized a monomer () and a dimer (, mixture).

Reactions of iridium trichloride hydrate with bulky 2-(9-anthracenyl)-1-phenyl-benzimidazole (anbi) in the presence of N-donor ligands afforded a number of unique noncyclometalated complexes, while attempts to prepare a common μ-chloro-bridged bis-cyclometalated dimer systematically gave a monocyclometalated complex -[Ir(,-anbi)(-anbi)Cl] instead. The obtained complexes were characterized by H NMR, high-resolution mass spectrometry, single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, UV-vis spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. The noncyclometalated complexes -[Ir(-anbi)(N^N)Cl)], where N^N are 4,4'-disubstituted 2,2'-bipyridines, are octahedral and contain the anthracene and 2,2'-bipyridine units in a close cofacial arrangement.

Designing a Mitochondria-Targeted Theranostic Cyclometalated Iridium(III) Complex: Overcoming Cisplatin Resistance and Inhibiting Tumor Metastasis through Necroptosis and Immune Response.

To develop a potential theranostic metal agent to reverse the resistance of cancer cells to cisplatin and effectively inhibit tumor growth and metastasis, we proposed to design a cyclometalated iridium (Ir) complex based on the properties of the tumor environment (TME). To the end, we designed and synthesized a series of Ir(III) 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde thiosemicarbazone complexes by modifying the hydrogen atom(s) of the N-3 position of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde thiosemicarbazone compounds and the structure of cyclometalated Ir(III) dimers and then investigated their structure-activity and structure-fluorescence relationships to obtain an Ir(III) complex (Ir5) with remarkable fluorescence and cytotoxicity to cancer cells. Ir5 not only possesses mitochondria-targeted properties but also overcomes resistance and effectively inhibits tumor growth and metastasis .

Ferrocenyl derivatives and organometallic iridium(III) complexes have been prospective substitutes for platinum-based anticancer drugs. Eight half-sandwich iridium(III) ferrocene-thiosemicarbazide (Fc-TSC) Schiff base anticancer complexes were prepared in this study. These complexes displayed a dimeric structure and exhibited a particular fluorescence due to the "enol" orientation of the TSC pro-ligand.
