Elucidation of Charge Contribution in Iridium-Chelated Hydrogen-Bonding Systems

We present two iridium complexes 1H+ and 2H+ that contain cationic ligands to extend the knowledge of charge-assisted hydrogen bonding (CAHB), which counts among the strongest non-covalent bonding interactions. Upon protonation, both complexes were converted into new hydrogen-bonding arrays with var...
