Simple tripeptides are shown here to be versatile ligands for iridium-catalyzed transferhydrogenations affording large acceleration effects. A water-soluble iridium complex with Gly-Gly-Phe, for example, catalyzes the reduction of diverse ketones, aldehydes, and imines by formate with turnover frequencies rivaling or outperforming those of established ligand systems. Regioselective reduction of coenzyme
