Abstract

In this work, the synthesis, stability studies, and photophysical properties of a bis-cyclometalated iridium(III) complex with a push-pull ancillary ligand are presented. The complex was found to localize in mitochondria and could be excited by a two-photon excitation process under a confocal laser scanning microscope.
