We report superconductive iridium pnictides BaxIr4X12 (X = As and P) with a filled skutterudite structure, demonstrating that Ba filling dramatically alters their electronic properties and induces a nonmetal-to metal transition with increasing, the Ea content x. The highest superconducting transition temperatures are 4.8 and 5.6 K observed for BaxIr4As12 and BaxIr4P12, respectively. The superconductivity in BaxIr4X12 can be classified into the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer type with intermediate coupling.
