Abstract
The title compound, [Ir(C12H8NO)Cl2(C12H9NO)]·CH2Cl2, which was obtained from the reaction of iridium(III) chloride trihydrate and 2-benzoylpyridine, contains an IrIII atom coordinated by two N, one O, one C and two Cl atoms in trans positions, forming a distorted octahedral environment. The solvent molecule CH2Cl2 is disordered over two positions with an occupancy of 0.8:0.2.
