This work has been supported by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO) MAT2014-55200. Herein we present a structure-property relationship study of thirteen cationic iridium (III) complexes of the form of [Ir(C^N)2(P^P)]PF6 in both solution and the solid state through systematic evaluation of six bisphosphine (P^P) ligands (xantphos, dpephos, dppe, Dppe, nixantphos and is…
