A new series of cationic areneiridium(I) complexes of formula [Ir(barrelene)(arene)]+ or [Ir(barrelene)(PhNRPh)]+ (R= Ph or H) have been synthesized from neutral iridium complexes of the type [IrY(barrelene)]x (barrelene = Me3TFB, Y = Cl or OMe (x = 2), Y = acac (x = 1); barrelene = TFB, Y = OMe (x = 2), Y = acac (x = 1)). The crystal structures of [Ir(Me3TFB)(1,4-C6H4Me2)]ClO4 and [Ir(TFB)(PhNPh2)]BF4·CH2Cl2 have been determined by X-ray diffraction. They crystallize in the space groups Pbca and Pna21 respectively with lattice constants of 17.6947(11), 15.8072(10), 16.0019(11) Å and 9.8059(2), 20.8097(9), 14.3367(4) Å. Final R factors were 0.063 and 0.042 for the observed data. Both complexes show a staggered arrangement between the arene and the TFB moieties and deviation from planarity of the coordinated arene ligands. In the second complex the IrC and NC distances, the CNC angle, the type of arene puckering, and the spectroscopic data indicate a distortion of the coordinated arene towards a η5-coordinated iminocyclohexadienyl form.
