The complex Ir­(acac)­{κ2-C,N-[C6BrH3-py]}­{κ2-C,N-[C6H4-py]} (2) is a green emitter, which displays short lifetimes (0.9–4.9 μs) and quantum yields of 0.32 in poly­(methyl methacrylate) films at 5 wt % and 0.41 in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran at room temperature. Its Pd­(OAc)2/4 PPh3-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with RB­(OH)2 afford Ir­(acac)­{κ2-C,N-[C6RH3-py]}­{κ2-C,N-[C6H4-py]} (R = Me (3), Ph (4)), which show almost identical emissions with quantum yields in the range 0.98–0.82.
