(3-Benzoyl-1,7,7-trimethyl­bicyclo­[2.2.1]heptan-2-olato-κ(2) O,O)bis­[2-(2-pyrid­yl)phenyl-κ(2) C (1),N]iridium(III)

The title compound, [Ir(C(11)H(8)N)(2)(C(17)H(19)O(2))], has an octa­hedral coordination geometry around the Ir(III) atom, retaining the cis-C,C,trans–N,N chelate disposition of the two 2-phenyl­pyridine ligands. The chelate rings are nearly mutually perpendicular [the inter­planar angles range from 85.48 (17) to 89.17 (19)°]. The two 2-(2-pyrid­yl)phenyl ligands are approximately planar, with the plane of the phenyl ring being inclined to that of the pyridine ring by 2.3 (3) and 5.1 (3)° in the two ligands. The inter­planar angle between the phenyl ring in 3-benzoyl-camphor and the IrO(2)C(3) chelate ring is 35.5 (2)°.
