Synthetic ease and exceptional in vivo performance of pyrazole-based cyclometallated iridium complexes

Abstract

Two luminescent cyclometallated IrIII complexes of the type [Ir(C^N)2(N^N)]x (X = 0 (1), and X = +1 (2)) were prepared using methyl 2-phenylquinoline-4-carboxylate as C^N ligands and either a deprotonated...
