Iota Coronae Borealis, Latinized from ι Coronae Borealis, is a binary star system in the constellation Corona Borealis. It is visible to the naked eye with a combined apparent visual magnitude of is 4.96. Based upon an annual parallax shift of {{val|8.8|ul=mas}} as seen from the Earth, it is located about 372 light years from the Sun.
This is a single-lined spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of 35.5 days and an eccentricity of 0.56. The visible member, component A, has a stellar classification of {{nowrap|A0 IIIp(HgMnEu)s}}, indicating it is a chemically peculiar mercury-manganese star with narrow absorption lines. The secondary member, component B, appears to be an A-type star.
