Several N,O-coordinate half-sandwich iridium complexes, 1-5, containing constrained bulky β-enaminoketonato ligands were prepared and clearly characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction characterization of these complexes indicates that the iridium center adopts a distorted octahedral geometry. Complexes 1-5 showed good catalytic efficiency in the oxidative homocoupling of primary amines, dehydrogenation of secondary amines, and the oxidative cross-coupling of amines and alcohols, which furnished various types of imines in good yields and high selectivi
