Cuprous Complex

Luminescent CuI complexes have emerged as promising substitutes for phosphorescent emitters based on Ir, Pt and Os due to their abundance and low cost. The title heteroleptic cuprous complex, [9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-9H-xanthene-κ2 P,P](2-methylquinolin-8-ol-κ2 N,O)copper(I) hexafluorophosphate, [Cu(C10H9NO)(C39H32OP2)]PF6, conventionally abbreviated as [Cu(Xantphos)(8-HOXQ)]PF6, where Xantphos is the chelating diphosphine ligand 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-9H-xanthene and 8-HOXQ is the N,O-chelating ligand 2-methylquinolin-8-ol that remains protonated at the hydroxy O atom, is described. In this complex, the asymmetric unit consists of a hexafluorophosphate anion and a whole mononuclear cation, where the CuI atom is coordinated by two P atoms from the Xantphos ligand and by the N and O atoms from the 8-HOXQ ligand, giving rise to a tetrahedral CuP2NO coordination geometry. The electronic absorption and photoluminescence properties of this complex have been studied on as-synthesized samples, whose purity had been determined by powder X-ray diffraction. In the detailed TD–DFT (time-dependent density functional theory) studies, the yellow emission appears to be derived from the inter-ligand charge transfer and metal-to-ligand charge transfer (M+L′)→LCT excited state (LCT is ligand charge transfer).

Luminescent cuprous complexes are an important class of coordination compounds due to their relative abundance, low cost and ability to display excellent luminescence. The title ionic trinuclear Cu3I2 complex, tris[μ2-diphenyl(pyridin-2-yl)phosphane-κ2 P:N]di-μ3-iodido-tricopper(I)(3 Cu—Cu) hexafluoridophosphate, [Cu3I2(C39H32NP)3]PF6, conventionally abbreviated as [Cu3I2(Ph2PPy)3]PF6, is described. Each CuI atom is coordinated by two μ3-iodide ligands and by a P and an N atom from two Ph2PPy ligands, giving rise to a CuI2PN tetrahedral coordination geometry about each CuI centre. The electronic absorption and photoluminescence properties of this trinuclear cluster have been studied on as-synthesized samples, which had been examined previously by powder X-ray diffraction. A detailed time-dependent density functional theory (TD–DFT) study was carried out and showed a green emission derived from a halide-to-ligand charge transfer and metal-to-ligand charge transfer 3(X+M)LCT excited state.

Cuprous Complex

Luminescent cuprous complexes are an important class of coordination compounds due to their relative abundance, low cost and ability to display excellent luminescence. The heteroleptic cuprous complex solvate rac-(acetonitrile-κN)(3-aminopyridine-κN)[2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-1,1′-binaphthyl-κ2 P,P′]copper(I) hexafluoridophosphate dichloromethane monosolvate, [Cu(C5H6N2)(C2H3N)(C44H32P2)]PF6·CH2Cl2, conventionally abbreviated as [Cu(3-PyNH2)(CH3CN)(BINAP)]PF6·CH2Cl2, (I), where BINAP and 3-PyNH2 represent 2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-1,1′-binaphthyl and 3-aminopyridine, respectively, is described. In this complex solvate, the asymmetric unit consists of a cocrystallized dichloromethane molecule, a hexafluoridophosphate anion and a complete racemic heteroleptic cuprous complex cation in which the cuprous centre, in a tetrahedral CuP2N2 coordination, is coordinated by two P atoms from the BINAP ligand, one N atom from the 3-PyNH2 ligand and another N atom from a coordinated acetonitrile molecule. The UV–Vis absorption and photoluminescence properties of this heteroleptic cuprous complex have been studied on polycrystalline powder samples, which had been verified by powder X-ray diffraction before recording the spectra. Time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations and a wavefunction analysis reveal that the orange–yellow phosphorescence emission should originate from intra-ligand (BINAP) charge transfer mixed with a little of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer 3(IL+ML)CT excited state.

Luminescent cuprous complexes are important coordination compounds due to their relative abundance, low cost and ability to display excellent luminescence. The structures of two CuIP2S-type cuprous complexes, namely, iodido(thiourea-κS)bis(triphenylphosphane-κP)copper(I), [CuI(CH4N2S)(C18H15P)2] or [CuI(TU)(TPP)2] (I), and (2,3-dihydrobenzimidazole-2-thione-κS)iodidobis(triphenylphosphane-κP)copper(I), [CuI(C7H6N2S)(C18H15P)2] or [CuI(DHBIT)(TPP)2] (II), are described. In these two structures, the complex molecules of both are constructed by one copper(I) centre, one iodide ion, two TPP ligands and one thione ligand (TU for I and DHBIT for II). The copper(I) centres of I and II are both located in a distorted CuIP2S tetrahedron and are coordinated by two P atoms from two TPP ligands, one S atom from the thione ligand and the I atom. The UV–Vis absorption and photoluminescence properties of these CuIP2S-type cuprous complexes have been studied using crystalline powder samples. Detailed time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations and wavefunction analysis reveal that the pale-blue–green phosphorescence emission should originate from intra-ligand (TPP for I and DHBIT for II) charge transfer, with a small component of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer 3(IL+ML)CT excited state.

Three zinc iodide complexes based on phosphane ligands, namely diiodidobis(triphenylphosphane-κP)zinc(II), [ZnI2(C18H15P2)2], (1), diiodidobis[tris(4-methylphenyl)phosphane-κP]zinc(II), [ZnI2(C21H21P2)2], (2), and [bis(diphenylphosphoryl)methane-κ2O,O′]zinc(II) tetraiodidozinc(II), [Zn(C25H22O2P2)3][ZnI4], (3), have been synthesized and characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that the structures of (1) and (2) are both mononuclear four-coordinated ZnI2complexes containing two monodentate phosphane ligands, respectively. Surprisingly, (2) spontaneously forms an acentric structure, suggesting it might be a potential second-order NLO material. The crystal structure of complex (3) is composed of two parts, namely a [Zn(dppmO2)3]2+cation [dppmO2is bis(diphenylphosphoryl)methane] and a [ZnI4]2−anion. The UV–Vis absorption spectra, thermal stabilities and photoluminescence spectra of the title complexes have also been studied. Time-dependent density functional theory (TD–DFT) calculations reveal that the low-energy UV absorption and the corresponding light emission both result from halide-ligand charge-transfer (XLCT) excited states.

The exo⇔endo isomerization of 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde was theoretically studied by density functional theory (DFT) to examine its favored conformers via sp2–sp2 single rotation. Both isomers were docked against 1BNA DNA to elucidate their binding ability, and the DFT-computed structural parameters results were matched with the X-ray diffraction (XRD) crystallographic parameters. XRD analysis showed that the exo-isomer was structurally favored and was also considered as the kinetically preferred isomer, while several hydrogen-bonding interactions detected in the crystal lattice by XRD were in good agreement with the Hirshfeld surface analysis calculations. The molecular electrostatic potential, Mulliken and natural population analysis charges, frontier molecular orbitals (HOMO/LUMO), and global reactivity descriptors quantum parameters were also determined at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. The computed electronic calculations, i.e., TD-SCF/DFT, B3LYP-IR, NMR-DB, and GIAO-NMR, were compared to the experimental UV–Vis., optical energy gap, FTIR, and 1H-NMR, respectively. The thermal behavior of 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde was also evaluated in an open atmosphere by a thermogravimetric–derivative thermogravimetric analysis, indicating its stability up to 95 °C.

The absorption spectra of 11 rhenium(I) complexes with photoisomerizable stilbene-like ligands have been investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT). The electronic structures of the ground and excited states were determined for [Re(CO)3(N,N)(L)]+ (N,N = bpy (2,2′-bipyridine), phen (1,10-phenanthroline), Me4phen (3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline), ph2phen (4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline), or Clphen (5-chloro-1,10-phenanthroline); L = bpe (1,2-bis(4-pyrydil)ethylene), stpy (4-styrylpyridine), or CNstpy (4-(4-cyano)styrylpyridine)) at the time–dependent (TD) DFT/CAM-B3LYP level of theory in vacuum and acetonitrile to highlight the effects of both antenna N,N and isomerizable L ligands. The TD-DFT spectra of two representative complexes, namely [Re(CO)3(bpy)(stpy)]+ and [Re(CO)3(phen)(bpe)]+, have been compared with MS-CASPT2 spectra. The TD-DFT spectra obtained in vacuum and acetonitrile agree rather well both with the ab initio and experimental spectra. The absorption spectroscopy of this series of molecules is characterized by the presence of three low-lying metal to ligand charge transfer (MLCT) states absorbing in the visible energy domain. The nature of the isomerizable ligands (bpe, stpy, or CNstpy) and the type of antenna ligands (bpy, phen, and substituted phen) control the degree of mixing between the MLCT and intraligand excited states, their relative energies, as well as their intensities.

Due to their rich structural chemistry and wide variety of applications, borate materials have provided a rich area of research. In a continuation of this research, diethylammonium bis(2-oxidobenzoato-κ2 O 1,O 2)borate, C4H12N+·BO4(C7H4O)2 −, (1), and propylammonium bis(2-oxidobenzoato-κ2 O 1,O 2)borate, C3H10N+·BO4(C7H4O)2 −, (2), have been synthesized by the reaction of boric acid with salicylic acid under ambient conditions. In both structures, the B atom exhibits a slightly distorted tetrahedral environment formed by the bidentate coordination of two salicylate anions via the O atoms of the central carboxylate and oxide groups. In the crystals of salts (1) and (2), mixed cation–anion layers lying parallel to the (101) plane are formed through N—H...O, C—H...O and C—H...π/N—H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions, resulting, in each case, in a two-dimensional supramolecular architecture in the solid state. The photoluminescence properties of the salts were studied using the as-synthesized samples and reveal that salts (1) and (2) both display a strong blue-light emission, with maxima at 489 and 491 nm, respectively. In DFT/TD–DFT (time-dependent density functional theory) studies, the blue emission appears to be derived from an intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) excited state. In addition, IR and UV–Vis spectroscopies were used to investigate the title salts.

Ligand Charge Transfer

The complexes [Ru(NCCH3)4bpy]2+ and [Ru([14]aneS4)bpy]2+ ([14]aneS4 = 1,4,8,11-tetrathiacyclotetradecane, bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) have similar absorption and emission spectra but the 77 K metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT) excited state emission lifetime of the latter is less than 0.3% that of the former. Density functional theory modeling of the lowest energy triplet excited states indicates that triplet metal centered (3MC) excited states are about 3500 cm−1 lower in energy than their 3MLCT excited states in both complexes. The differences in excited state lifetimes arise from a much larger coordination sphere distortion for [Ru(NCCH3)4bpy]2+ and the associated larger reorganizational barrier for intramolecular electron transfer. The smaller ruthenium ligand distortions of the [Ru([14]aneS4)bpy]2+ complex are apparently a consequence of stereochemical constraints imposed by the macrocyclic [14]aneS4 ligand, and the 3MC excited state calculated for the unconstrained [Ru(S(CH3)2)4bpy]2+ complex (S(CH3)2 = dimethyl sulfide) is distorted in a manner similar to that of [Ru(NCCH3)4bpy]2+. Despite the lower energy calculated for its 3MC than 3MLCT excited state, [Ru(NCCH3)4bpy]2+ emits strongly in 77 K glasses with an emission quantum yield of 0.47. The emission is biphasic with about a 1 μs lifetime for its dominant (86%) emission component. The 405 nm excitation used in these studies results in a significant amount of photodecomposition in the 77 K glasses. This is a temperature-dependent biphotonic process that most likely involves the bipyridine-radical anionic moiety of the 3MLCT excited state. A smaller than expected value found for the radiative rate constant is consistent with a lower energy 3MC than 3MLCT state.

N,N′-Bis(pyridin-4-yl)formamidine (4-pyfH) was reacted with AuI and AgI metal salts to form a novel tetranuclear complex, tetrakis[μ-N,N′-bis(pyridin-4-yl)formamidinato]digold(I)disilver(I), [Ag2Au2(C11H9N4)2] or [Au x Ag4–x (4-pyf)4] (x = 0–4), 1, which is supported by its metallophilicity. Due to the potential permutation of the coordinated metal ions, six different canonical structures of 1 can be obtained. Complex 1 shows an emission at 501 nm upon excitation at 375 nm in the solid state and an emission at 438 nm upon excitation at 304 nm when dispersed in methanol. Time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations confirmed that these emissions can be ascribed to metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) processes. Moreover, the calculations of the optimized structural conformations of the S0 ground state, and the S1 and T1 excited states are discussed and suggest a distorted planar conformation for the tetranuclear Au2Ag2 complex.
