Abstract Neutral [X-{Ir2}-{Ir2}-X] (X = Cl, Br, SCN, I) and dicationic [L-{Ir2}-{Ir2}-L]2+ (L = MeCN, Me2CO) tetrametallic iridium chains made by connecting two dinuclear {Ir2} units ({Ir2} = [Ir2(μ-OPy)2(CO)4], OPy = 2-pyridonate) by an iridium-iridium bond are described. The complexes exhibit fractional averaged oxidation states of +1.5 and electronic delocalization along the metallic chain.
