Bridge Ligand

The photochemical properties of the complexescis,fac-(I),cis-[Ru(phen)2(pz)2]2+(II), andfac-Mn(CO)3(pz)2Br (III) where phen is phenanthroline and pz is pyrazine in acetonitrile solution are reported. The three complexes were characterized using1H NMR, UV-vis and FTIR spectroscopy and electrochemical (cyclic voltammetry and spectroelectrochemical) techniques. The complexes show intense absorption in the visible region assigned to the population of MLCT excited states. The absorption spectrum ofIis the sum of the spectra of the mononuclear speciesIIandIII, and the two oxidation potentials at +1.10 and +1.56 V versus Ag/AGCl observed inIare ascribed to the different coordination environments of metal centers. The photolysis in the acetonitrile solution resulted in the pz dissociation to give the monoacetonitrile complexes forI,II, andIII, respectively.

Photochemical Properties

<p>Three Re(I) tricarbonyl complexes, with general formulation Re(N^L)(CO)<sub>3</sub>X (where N^L is a bidentate ligand containing a pyridine functionalized in the position 2 with a thione or a thiazol-2-ylidene group and X is either chloro or bromo) were synthesized and their reactivity explored in terms of solvent-dependent ligand substitution, both in the ground and excited states. When dissolved in acetonitrile, the complexes bound to the thione ligand underwent ligand exchange with the solvent resulting in the formation of Re(NCMe)<sub>2</sub>(CO)<sub>3</sub>X. The exchange was found to be reversible, and the starting complex was reformed upon removal of the solvent. On the other hand, the complexes appeared inert in dichloromethane or acetone. Conversely, the complex bound to the thiazole-2-ylidene ligand did not display any ligand exchange reaction in the dark, but underwent photoactivated ligand substitution when excited to its lowest metal-to-ligand charge transfer manifold. Photolysis of this complex in acetonitrile generated multiple products, including Re(I) tricarbonyl and dicarbonyl solvato-complexes as well as free thiazole-2-ylidene ligand.</p>

The corresponding values of the oxidation potentials IE1/2ox and IIE1/2ox (waves I and II, respectively) correlate with the Pickett's and Lever's electrochemical ligand and metal site parameters. This allows to estimate these parameters for the various nitrile ligands, depe and binding sites (for the first time for a FeIII/IV couple). The electrochemical ligand parameter show dependence on the "electron-richness" of the metal centre. The values of IE1/2ox for the ReI complexes provide some supporting for a curved overall relationship with the sum of Lever's electrochemical ligand parameter. The Pickett parametrization for closed-shell complexes is extended now also to 17-electron complexes, i.e. with the 15-electron ReII and FeIII centres in cis-{[ReCl(dppe)2]}+ and trans-{FeBr(depe)2}2+, respectively.

Copolymers based on 1, 4-diethoxybenzene (DEB) and 3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) were electrochemically synthesized and characterized. The structures of the copolymers were established by 1H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. The results indicated the final product was a copolymer instead of a blend or a composite. The physical properties were systematically investigated by cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis absorption and fluorescence. The PL maximum of copolymers presented obviously red-shift to long wavelength as the feed ratio of EDOT in monomer mixture increased.

A series of donor-acceptor copolymers with dicyclopenta[cd,jk]pyrene and dicyclopenta[cd,lm]perylene acceptor units was prepared via palladium catalyzed cyclopenta-annulation reactions. The acceptor units were paired with diethynyl containing donor groups based on benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene, thieno[3,2-b]thiophene, and 4-octyl-4H-dithieno[3,2-b:2',3'-d]pyrrole to create six polymer variants. The cyclopentannulation polymerization resulted in copolymers with molecular weights (Mn) of 6-14 kDa and broad light absorption in the visible region with band gaps of 1.38-1.85 eV. The synthetic methodology, as well as optoelectronic properties, including thin-film absorption and cyclic voltammetry, of the donor-acceptor copolymers are presented.<br> <br><br>

Hydrolysis Of

Dinuclear platinum(II) complexes, [{Pt(en)Cl}2(μ-qx)]Cl2·2H2O (1), [{Pt(en)Cl}2(μ-qz)](ClO4)2(2), and [{Pt(en)Cl}2(μ-phtz)]Cl2·4H2O (3), were synthesized and characterized by different spectroscopic techniques. The crystal structure of1was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, while the DFT M06-2X method was applied in order to optimize the structures of1–3. The chlorido Pt(II) complexes1–3were converted into the corresponding aqua species1a–3a, and their reactions with an equimolar amount of Ac–L–Met–Gly and Ac–L–His–Gly dipeptides were studied by1H NMR spectroscopy in the pH range 2.0 < pH < 2.5 at 37°C. It was found that, in all investigated reactions with the Ac–L–Met–Gly dipeptide, the cleavage of the Met–Gly amide bond had occurred, but complexes2aand3ashowed lower catalytic activity than1a. However, in the reactions with Ac–L–His–Gly dipeptide, the hydrolysis of the amide bond involving the carboxylic group of histidine was observed only with complex1a. The observed disparity in the catalytic activity of these complexes is thought to be due to different relative positioning of nitrogen atoms in the bridging qx, qz, and phtz ligands and consequent variation in the intramolecular separation of the two platinum(II) metal centers.

Antiaromatic molecules have recently been proven to display unique properties such as small HOMO–LUMO gaps, ambipolar carrier transporting and [Formula: see text]-stack-induced aromatic stabilizations. These intriguing properties have been demonstrated by stable antiaromatic molecules that exhibit a distinct antiaromatic character. Di-peri-dinaphthoporphyrins are peripherally [Formula: see text]-extended porphyrinoids that exhibit a planar structure and a distinct antiaromatic character stemming from their 24[Formula: see text] electron circuit. Herein, we report an alkyl-substituted di-peri-dinaphthoporphyrin Ni(II) complex 5Ni bearing less peripheral bulkiness as compared with phenyl-substituted ones. 5Ni displayed upfield-shifted [Formula: see text]H NMR signals due to [Formula: see text]-protons, indicating its distinct antiaromaticity, and a slightly shorter intermolecular packing distance (ca. 3.402 Å) in the solid state. Cyclic voltammetry shows a larger potential difference between the first and second oxidation waves, implying that this molecule tends to stack favorably in its oxidized state.

We utilise ultrabroadband two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy to map out pathways of energy flow in LHCII across the entire visible region. In addition to the well-established, low-lying chlorophyll Qy bands, our results reveal additional pathways of energy relaxation on the higher-lying excited states involving the S2 energy levels of carotenoids, including ultrafast carotenoid-to-chlorophyll energy transfer on 90-150 fs timescales.

In this study, the synthesis and characterization of mono-(phthalocyaninato) lutetium(III) (1-Cl and 1-F) [Lu[Formula: see text](AcO)(Pc)] (Pc [Formula: see text] phthalocyaninato, AcO [Formula: see text] acetate) and bis-(phthalocyaninato) lutetium(III) (2-Cl and 2-Br) [Lu[Formula: see text]Pc[Formula: see text]] bearing halogenated (F, Cl and Br) phenoxy–phenoxy groups are described and verified by IR, [Formula: see text]H-NMR, UV-vis and mass spectrometry. Photochemical and photophysical properties of 1-F, 1-Cl 2-Cl and 2-Br in DMSO are also presented. A comparison between photophysical and photochemical parameters of mono and bis derivatives showed that mono phthalocyanines are better photosensitizers than bis phthalocyanines. Photophysical and photochemical properties of phthalocyanines are very useful for photodynamic therapy applications. Singlet oxygen quantum yields [Formula: see text] give an indication of the potential of the complexes as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy applications. The chloro, fluoro, bromo-phenoxy–phenoxy substituted mono-(phthalocyaninato) lutetium(III) complexes (1-Cl and 1-F) gave good singlet oxygen quantum yields (from 0.86 to 0.80) in DMSO. Thus, these complexes show potential as Type II photosensitizers for PDT of cancer.
