In this work, the synthesis, stability studies, and photophysical properties of a bis‐cyclometalated iridium(III) complex with a push‐pull ancillary ligand are presented. The complex was found to localize in mitochondria and could be excited by a two‐photon excitation process under a confocal laser scanning microscope.
