[(1,2,5,6-η)-1,5-Cyclo-octa-diene](1-isopropyl-3-methyl-imidazolin-2-yl-idene)(triphenyl-phosphine)iridium(I) tetra-fluorido-borate dichloro-methane solvate.

In the title compound, [Ir(C(8)H(12))(C(7)H(12)N(2))(C(18)H(15)P)]BF(4)·CH(2)Cl(2), the Ir(I) atom has a square-planar conformation with normal bond lengths. One of the phenyl rings, and the solvent dichloro-methane mol-ecule, were refined using separate two part disorder models, each in an approximately 1:1 ratio.
