Deprotection of the methoxy groups with BBr3 is problematic as simultaneous bromination of the cyclometallated phenyl groups occurs. However, deprotection of Me2-phencat with BBr3 followed by complexation with [Ir(CŸN)2Cl]2 gives luminescent complexes [Ir(CŸN)2(H2-phencat)][PF6] (H2-3a, c)[PF6], which are luminescent sensors for molybdate.}, publisher = {The Royal Society of Chemistry and Owner Societies}, title = {Luminescent iridium complexes for detection of molybdate}, doi = {10.1039/c1dt11360g}, author = {L.
