Chiral precursors Λ-[Ir(ppy)2(l-pro)] (Λ-L, where ppy is 2-phenylpyridine; pro is proline), Λ-[Ir(ppy)2(MeCN)2](PF6) (Λ-1), Δ-[Ir(ppy)2(d-pro)] (Δ-D), and Δ-[Ir(ppy)2(MeCN)2](PF6) (Δ-1) were synthesized from rac-[(Ir(ppy)2)2Cl2] and l-pro or d-pro by means of the auxiliary ligand strategy with 99% de values. The enantiopure mono complexes Λ/Δ-[Ir(ppy)2(L)](PF6) (L is 2,2′-bipyridine, Λ/Δ-2; L is 2,2′-dipyrimidine (dpm), Λ/Δ-3; L is 2,2′-bibenzimidazole (H2bbim), Λ/Δ-4) with 99% ee values and binuclear complexes ΛΛ/ΔΔ-[(Ir(ppy)2)2(dpm)](PF6)2 (ΛΛ-5 and ΔΔ-5) and ΛΛ/ΔΔ-[(Ir(ppy)2)2(bbim)] (ΛΛ-6 and ΔΔ-6) with 99% de values were synthesized in one step using the corresponding chiral precursors. The absolute configurations at Ir(III) centers of precursor Δ-1, mononuclear Λ-3, and binuclear ΔΔ-6 were confirmed by single-crystal structural analysis and characterized by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. The correlation between the absolute configuration at Ir(III) center and CD spectra was established. The configurations at Ir(III) centers are stable during the reactions, and the chiral precursors can be used for the asymmetric synthesis of enantiomerically pure mono- and polynuclear Ir(III) complexes. Moreover, meso ΛΔ-[(Ir(ppy)2)2(dpm)](PF6)2 (meso-5) and ΛΔ-[(Ir(ppy)2)2(bbim)] (meso-6) were also synthesized using these precursors.
