Dichlorido(9-methyl­adenine-κN (7))(η(5)-penta­methyl­cyclo­penta­dien­yl)iridium(III) dichloromethane solvate

In the title complex, [Ir(C(10)H(15))Cl(2)(C(6)H(7)N(5))]·CH(2)Cl(2) or [Ir(η(5)-C(5)Me(5))Cl(2)(9-MeAde-κN (7))]·CH(2)Cl(2) (9-MeAde = 9-methyl­adenine), the coordination geometry of the Ir(III) atom approximates to a three-legged piano stool. The 9-methyl­adenine ligand is coordinated in a monodentate fashion to the Ir centre through its N-7 atom. The crystal structure contains centrosymmetric pairs of mol­ecules, inter­acting through two N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. An intra­molecular N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bond is formed between the H atom of an NH(2) group and a chlorido ligand. Further short intra- and inter­molecular C—H⋯Cl contacts are observed.
