Two cationic iridium(III) complexes with bright green and red emissions were demonstrated as phosphorescent dyes for living cell imaging. In particular, their exclusive staining in cytoplasm, low cytotoxicity and reduced photobleaching, as well as cell membrane permeability, make the two complexes promising candidates for the design of specific bioimaging agents.
