title: Bis[μ-2-(aminosulfanyl)pyridine(1-)]bis-[(η-penta-methyl-cyclo-penta-dien-yl)iridium(III)] diiodide.
abstract: In the title dinuclear iridium(III) complex, [Ir(2)(C(10)H(15))(2)(C(5)H(5)N(2)S)(2)]I(2), the iridium(III) atoms are bridged by 2-(aminosulfanyl)pyridine(1-) [(2-py)SNH] ligands in a μ-(2-py)SNH-κ(2)N(py),N(NH):κN(NH) mode. The dinuclear complex cation lies on a crystallographic inversion center, resulting in a planar Ir(2)N(2) ring with an Ir-N(py) bond length of 2.085 (9) Å and bridging Ir-N(NH) bonds of 2.110 (9) and 2.113 (9) Å. The two (2-py)S units have mutually anti configurations with respect to the Ir(2)N(2) ring.
