The asymmetric unit of the title compound, fac-[Ir(C11H8N)2(C18H24N2)]Cl or fac-[Ir(ppy)2(Hppy-NC6)]Cl, contains two [Ir(ppy)2(ppy-NC6)](H+) cations, two Cl− anions and a disordered solvent. In each complex molecule, the IrIII ion is coordinated by two C,N-bidentate 2-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl ligands and one C,N-bidentate N-[4-(pyridin-2-yl)benzyl]hexan-1-aminium ligand, leading to a distorted fac-octahedral coordination environment. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by N—H⋯Cl, C—H⋯π and π–π interactions, forming a three-dimensional supramolecular structure.
