A series of optically active pseudo-tetrahedral five-membered cyclometalated 1-naphthylethanamine iridium(III) complexes were prepared and characterized to analyze the efficacy of the stereogenic conformational lock in both solid and solution phases. The synthesis of the iridacycles was diastereosel...
