Temperature-dependent mechanistic transition for photoinduced electron transfer modulated by excited-state vibrational relaxation dynamics

The electron transfer (ET) dynamics of an unusually rigid pi-stacked (porphinato)zinc(II)-spacer-quinone (PZn-Q) system, [5-[8'-(4' '-[8' '-(2' ' ',5' ' '-benzoquinonyl)-1' '-naphthyl]-1' '-phenyl)-1'-naphthyl]-10,20-diphenylporphinato]zinc(II) (2a-Zn), in which sub-van der Waals interplanar distances separate juxtaposed porphyryl, aromatic bridge, and quinonyl components of this assembly, have been measured by ultrafast pump-probe transient absorption spectroscopy over a 80-320 K temperature range in 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran (2-MTHF) solvent. Analyses of the photoinduced charge-separation (CS) rate data are presented within the context of several different theoretical frameworks. Experiments show that at higher temperatures the initially prepared 2a-Zn vibronically excited S1 state relaxes on an ultrafast time scale, and ET is observed exclusively from the equilibrated lowest-energy S1 state (CS1). As the temperature decreases, production of the photoinduced charge-separated state directly from the vibrationally unrelaxed S1 state (CS2) becomes competitive with the vibrational relaxation time scale. At the lowest experimentally interrogated temperature ( approximately 80 K), CS2 defines the dominant ET pathway. ET from the vibrationally unrelaxed S1 state is temperature-independent and manifests a subpicosecond time constant; in contrast, the CS1 rate constant is temperature-dependent, exhibiting time constants ranging from 4x10(10) s(-1) to 4x10(11) s(-1) and is correlated strongly with the temperature-dependent solvent dielectric relaxation time scale over a significant temperature domain. Respective electronic coupling matrix elements for each of these photoinduced CS1 and CS2 pathways were determined to be approximately 50 and approximately 100 cm-1. This work not only documents a rare, if not unique, example of a system where temperature-dependent photoinduced charge-separation (CS) dynamics from vibrationally relaxed and unrelaxed S1 states can be differentiated, but also demonstrates a temperature-dependent mechanistic transition of photoinduced CS from the nonadiabatic to the solvent-controlled adiabatic regime, followed by a second temperature-dependent mechanistic evolution where CS becomes decoupled from solvent dynamics and is determined by the extent to which the vibrationally unrelaxed S1 state is populated.     

High-resolution structure and conformational dynamics of rigid, cofacially aligned porphyrin-bridge-quinone systems as determined by NMR spectroscopy and ab initio simulated annealing calculations

The high-resolution solution structure and dynamics of a cofacially aligned porphyrin--phenylene--quinone compound have been determined using (1)H NMR spectroscopy and simulated annealing calculations. Members of this class of pi-stacked assemblies feature a 1,8-naphthyl pillaring motif that enforces sub van der Waals interplanar separations between juxtaposed porphyryl, aromatic bridge, and quinonyl components of the donor--spacer--acceptor compound; this structural motif gives rise to a comprehensive set of structurally significant NOE signatures that can be used as constraints in quantitative structural calculations. Examination of such data using ab initio simulated annealing analytical methods shows that 5-[8'-(4' '-[8' "-(2' " ',5' "-benzoquinonyl)-1' "-naphthyl]-1' '-phenyl)-1'-naphthyl]-10,20-diphenylporphyrin displays an unusual degree of conformational homogeneity in the condensed phase, and represents a rare example where such an analysis determines unequivocally a single unique structure in solution.     

Interrogating conformationally dependent electron-transfer dynamics via ultrafast visible pump/IR probe spectroscopy

We demonstrate for the first time the utility of time-resolved visible pump/mid-infrared (IR) probe spectroscopy to interrogate directly, and provide unique infomation regarding, conformationally dependent photoinduced ET dynamics and the subsequent structural evolution of the resulting charge-separated (CS) state. Exemplary polarized visible pump/IR probe experiments involving N-[5-(10,20-diphenylporphinato)zinc(II)]-N'(octyl)pyromellitic diimide (PZn-PI) and [5-[4'-(N-(N'-octyl)pyromellitic diimide)phenyl)ethynyl]-10,20-diphenylporphinato]zinc(II) (PZn()PI) show that it is possible to assess the mean PZn-to-PI interplanar torsional angle of electronically excited structural conformers that undergo ET within the sub-ps time domain for both of these donor-spacer-acceptor (D-Sp-A) systems. Further transient specroscopic experiments carried out on PZn()PI determine how this angle evolves with time. Because vibrational transition moments are often known and typically localized, this work underscores that polarized visible pump/IR probe spectroscopy defines a valuable tool to interrogate structrure in both electronically excited and CS states; this fact, coupled with the ultrafast time resolution and high senseitivity offered by this technique, make it ideally suited to probe a range of mechanistic issues relevant to charge-transfer reactions.     

Synthesis, excited-state dynamics, and reactivity of a directly-linked pyromellitimide-(porphinato)zinc(II) complex

N-[5-(10,20-Diphenylporphinato)zinc(II)]-N'-(octyl)pyromellitic diimide (PZn-PI), a meso-pyromellitimide-substituted (porphinato)zinc(II) compound, has been fabricated from the reaction of (5-amino-10,20-diphenylporphinato)zinc(II) with pyromellitic dianhydride in the presence of octylamine. Interrogation of the photoinduced charge separation (CS) and thermal charge recombination (CR) electron-transfer (ET) dynamics for PZn-PI in CH(2)Cl(2) via pump-probe transient absorption spectroscopic methods shows that tau(CS) and tau(CR) are 770 and 5200 fs, respectively. These ET dynamics differ from those elucidated previously for closely related 5-quinonyl-substituted (porphinato)metal compounds, and derive from the fact that the low-lying excited states for PZn-PI are porphyrin-localized, possessing little charge-transfer character. The synthesis of N-(5-[15-(2-(triisopropylsilyl)ethynyl)-10,20-diphenylporphinato]zinc(II))-N'-(octyl)pyromellitic diimide demonstrates that PZn-PI can be halogenated at its 15-meso-position and used subsequently as a substrate in metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions; the reactivity of PZn-PI is unusual with respect to many directly linked donor-acceptor compounds in that it is stable to these oxidizing and reducing reaction conditions.     

Decoupling optical and potentiometric band gaps in pi-conjugated materials

Syntheses, optical spectroscopy, potentiometric studies, and electronic structural calculations are reported for two classes of conjugated (porphinato)metal oligomers that feature a meso-to-meso ethyne-bridged linkage topology. One set of these systems, bis[(5,5'-10,20-bis[3,5-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]ethyne (DD), 5,15-bis[[5'-10',20'-bis[3,5-di(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]ethynyl]-10,20-bis[3,5-di(9-methoxy-1,4,7-trioxanonyl)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II) (DDD), and 5,15-bis[[15' '-(5'-10',20'-bis[3,5-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]-[(5' '-10' ',20' '-bis[3,5-di(9-methoxy-1,4,7-trioxanonyl)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]ethyne]ethynyl]-10,20-bis[3,5-di(9-methoxy-1,4,7-trioxanonyl)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II) (DDDDD), constitute highly soluble analogues of previously studied examples of this structural motif having simple 10,20-diaryl substituents, while a corresponding set of conjugated oligomers, [(5-10,20-bis[3,5-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]-[(5'-15'-ethynyl-10',20'-bis[10,20-bis(heptafluoropropyl)porphinato)zinc(II)]ethyne (DA), 5,15-bis[[5'-10',20'-bis[3,5-di(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]ethynyl]-10,20-bis(heptafluoropropyl)porphinato]zinc(II) (DAD), and 5,15-bis[[15' '-(5'-10',20'-bis[3,5-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]-[(5' '-(10' ',20' '-bis(heptafluoropropyl)porphinato)zinc(II)]ethyne]ethynyl]-10,20-bis[3,5-di(9-methoxy-1,4,7-trioxanonyl)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II) (DADAD), features alternating electron-rich and electron-poor (porphinato)zinc(II) units. Electrooptic and computational data for these species demonstrate that it is possible to engineer conjugated oligomeric structures that possess highly delocalized singlet (S1) excited states yet manifest apparent one-electron oxidation and reduction potentials (E1/20/+ and E1/2-/0 values) that are essentially invariant with respect to those elucidated for their constituent monomeric precursors.     

Highly conjugated (polypyridyl)metal-(porphinato)zinc(II) compounds: long-lived, high oscillator strength, excited-state absorbers having exceptional spectral coverage of the near-infrared

Transient dynamical studies of ruthenium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridine)2+ bis-hexafluorophosphate (Ru-PZn), osmium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridine)2+ bis-hexafluorophosphate (Os-PZn), ruthenium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-15-(4'-nitrophenyl)ethynyl-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridine)2+ bis-hexafluorophosphate (Ru-PZn-A), osmium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-15-(4'-nitrophenyl)ethynyl-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridine)2+ bis-hexafluorophosphate (Os-PZn-A), and ruthenium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-ruthenium(II)-15-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-bis(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridine)4+ tetrakis-hexafluorophosphate (Ru-PZn-Ru), and ruthenium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-osmium(II)-15-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-bis(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridine) tetrakis-hexafluorophosphate (Ru-PZn-Os) show that these highly conjugated supermolecular chromophores feature electronically excited states that absorb over broad NIR spectral windows with considerable oscillator strength and manifest lifetimes (1-50 mus) that are extraordinarily long relative to those of classic low band-gap organic materials. The excited-state absorptive domains of these strongly coupled multipigment ensembles can be extensively modulated. For sequential one-photon absorptive processes, these compounds evince large sigmae, sigmae/sigmag, and sigmae - sigmag values. As the combination of all these properties within single chromophoric entities have heretofore lacked precedent within the NIR, these and closely related structures may find particular utility in a variety of technologically important optical-limiting applications.     

Design, synthesis, linear, and nonlinear optical properties of conjugated (porphinato)zinc(II)-based donor-acceptor chromophores featuring nitrothiophenyl and nitrooligothiophenyl electron-accepting moieties

An extensive series of conjugated (porphinato)zinc(II)-based chromophores featuring nitrothiophenyl and nitrooligothiophenyl electron-accepting moieties has been synthesized using metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions involving [5-bromo-15-triisopropylsilylethynyl-10,20-diarylporphinato]zinc(II) and an unusual electron-rich Suzuki-porphyrin synthon, [5-(4-dimethylaminophenylethynyl)-15-(4',4',5',5'-tetramethyl[1',3',2']dioxaborolan-2'-yl)-10,20-diarylporphinato]zinc(II), with appropriately functionalized aryl and thienyl precursors. These donor-acceptor chromophores feature thiophenyl, [2,2']bithiophenyl, and [2,2';5',2' ']terthiophenyl units terminated with a 5-nitro group; one series of structures features these acceptor moieties appended directly to the porphyrin macrocycle meso-carbon position, while a second set utilizes an intervening meso-ethynyl moiety to modify porphyrin-to-thiophene conjugation. The dynamic hyperpolarizability of these compounds was determined from hyper-Rayleigh light scattering (HRS) measurements carried out at fundamental incident irradiation wavelengths (lambda(inc)) of 800 and 1300 nm; interestingly, measured beta(1300) values ranged from 650 --> 4350 x 10(-30) esu. The combined linear and nonlinear optical properties of these compounds challenge the classical concept of the nonlinearity/transparency tradeoff in charge-transfer chromophores: the magnitude of the molecular hyperpolarizability is observed to vary substantially despite approximately uniform ground-state absorptive signatures for a given porphyrin-to-thiophene linkage topology. These data show that these neutral dipolar molecules can express substantial beta(1300) values; such conjugated, electronically asymmetric porphyrin-thiophene chromophores may thus find utility for electrooptic applications at telecom-relevant wavelengths.     

Extreme electronic modulation of the cofacial porphyrin structural motif

The synthesis, electrochemistry, and optical spectroscopy of an extensive series of cofacial bis[(porphinato)zinc(II)] compounds are reported. These species were synthesized using sequential palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling and cobalt-mediated [2+2+2] cycloaddition reactions. This modular methodology enables facile control of the nature of macrocycle-to-macrocycle connectivity and allows unprecedented modulation of the redox properties of face-to-face porphyrin species. We report the synthesis of 5,6-bis[(5',5'-10',20'-bis[4-(3-methoxy-3-methylbutoxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]indane (1), 5,6-bis[(2'-5',10',15',20'-tetraphenylporphinato)zinc(II)]indane (2), 5-([2'-5',10',15',20'-tetraphenylporphinato]zinc(II))-6-[(5"-10',20'-bis[4-(3-methoxy-3-methylbutoxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]indane (3), 5-([2'-5',10',15',20'-tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)porphinato]zinc(II))-6-[(5' '-10' ',20' '-bis[4-(3-methoxy-3-methylbutoxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]indane (4), 5-(2'-5',10',15',20'-[tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)porphinato]zinc(II))-6-[(2'-5',10',15',20'-tetraphenylporphinato)zinc(II)]indane (5), 5,6-bis([2'-5',15'-diphenyl-10',20'-(trifluoromethyl)porphinato]zinc(II))indane (6), and 5,6-bis([2'-5',10',15',20'-tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)porphinato]zinc(II))indane (7); 4-7 define the first examples of cofacial bis[(porphinato)metal] compounds in which sigma-electron-withdrawing perfluoroalkyl groups serve as macrocycle substituents, while 2, 6, and 7 constitute the first such structures that possess a beta-to-beta linkage topology. Cyclic voltammetric studies show that the electrochemically determined HOMO and LUMO energy levels of these cofacial bis(porphinato) complexes can be lowered by 780 and 945 mV, respectively, relative to the archetypal members of this class of compounds; importantly, these orbital energy levels can be modulated over well-defined increments throughout these wide potentiometric domains. Analyses of these cofacial bis[(porphinato)metal] potentiometric data, in terms of the absolute and relative frontier orbital energies of their constituent [porphinato]zinc(II) building blocks, as well as the nature of macrocycle-to-macrocycle connectivity, provide predictive electronic structural models that rationalize the redox behavior of these species.     

Unusual frequency dispersion effects of the nonlinear optical response in highly conjugated (polypyridyl)metal-(porphinato)zinc(II) chromophores

The syntheses and electrooptic properties of a new family of nonlinear optical chromophores are reported. These species feature an ethyne-elaborated, highly polarizable porphyrinic component and metal polypyridyl complexes that serve as integral donor and acceptor elements. Examples of this structural motif include ruthenium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridine)(2+) bis-hexafluorophosphate (Ru-PZn); osmium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2'-terpyridinyl))-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-(2,2';6',2'-terpyridine)(2+) bis-hexafluorophosphate (Os-PZn); ruthenium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2'-terpyridinyl))-15-(4'-nitrophenyl)ethynyl-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phen-yl)porphinato]zinc(II)-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridine)(2+) bis-hexafluorophosphate (Ru-PZn-A); osmium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))-15-(4'-nitrophenyl)ethynyl-10,20-bis(2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridine)(2+) bis-hexafluorophosphate (Os-PZn-A); and ruthenium(II) [5-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2' '-terpyridinyl))osmium(II)-15-(4'-ethynyl-(2,2';6',2'-terpyridinyl))-10,20-bis (2',6'-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)porphinato]zinc(II)-bis(2,2';6',2'-terpyridine)(4+) tetrakis-hexafluorophosphate (Ru-PZn-Os). The frequency dependence of the dynamic hyperpolarizability of these compounds was determined from hyperRayleigh light scattering (HRS) measurements carried out at fundamental incident irradiation wavelengths (lambda(inc)) of 800, 1064, and 1300 nm. These data show that (i) coupled oscillator photophysics and metal-mediated cross-coupling can be exploited to elaborate high beta(0) supermolecules that exhibit significant excited-state electronic communication between their respective pigment building blocks; (ii) high-stability metal polypyridyl compounds constitute an attractive alternative to electron releasing dialkyl- and diarylamino groups, the most commonly used donor moieties in a wide range of established nonlinear optical dyes; (iii) this design strategy enables ready elaboration of chromophores having extraordinarily large dynamic hyperpolarizabilities (beta(lambda) values) at telecommunication relevant wavelengths; and (iv) porphyrin B- and Q-state-derived static hyperpolarizabilities (beta(0) values) can be designed to have the same or opposite sign in these species, thus providing a new means to regulate the magnitude of lambda(inc)-specific dynamic hyperpolarizabilities.     

Electronic modulation of hyperpolarizable (porphinato)zinc(II) chromophores featuring ethynylphenyl-, ethynylthiophenyl-, ethynylthiazolyl-, and ethynylbenzothiazolyl-based electron-donating and -accepting moieties

A series of conjugated (porphinato)zinc(II)-based chromophores structurally related to [5-(4-dimethylaminophenylethynyl)-15-(5-nitrothienyl-2-ethynyl)-10,20-bis(3,5-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl)]zinc(II) were synthesized using metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions involving [5-bromo-15-triisopropylsilylethynyl-10,20-diarylporphinato]zinc(II), [5-bromo-15-(4-dimethylaminophenylethynyl)-10,20-diarylporphinato]zinc(II), [5-(4-dimethylaminophenylethynyl)-15-ethynyl-10,20-diarylporphinato]zinc(II), and [5-(4-nitrophenylethynyl)-15-ethynyl-10,20-diarylporphinato]zinc(II), along with appropriately functionalized aryl, thienyl (or thiophenyl), thiazolyl, benzothiazolyl, and carbazolyl precursors. The linear and nonlinear optical properties of these asymmetrically 5,15-substitued-(10,20-diarylporphinato)zinc(II) chromophores that bear either 2-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)-thiophen-5-yl-ethynyl, 4-dimethylaminophenylethynyl, or 2-(N,N-diphenylamino)thiophen-5-yl-ethynyl electron-releasing groups and an electron-withdrawing group selected from 2-formyl-thiophen-5-yl-ethynyl, 2-(2,2-dicyanovinyl)-thiophen-5-yl-ethynyl, 4-nitrophenylethynyl, 6-nitrobenzothiazol-2-yl-ethynyl, or 5-nitrothiazol-2-yl-ethynyl are reported. The dynamic hyperpolarizabilities of these compounds were determined from hyper-Rayleigh light scattering measurements carried out at a fundamental incident irradiation wavelength (lambda(inc)) of 1300 nm; these measured beta1300 values ranged from 690 --> 1400 x 10(-30) esu. These data (i) show that these neutral dipolar molecules express substantial beta1300 values, (ii) highlight that reductions in the magnitude of the aromatic stabilization energy of (porphinato)metal-pendant arylethynyl groups have a significant impact upon the magnitude of the molecular hyperpolarizability, and (iii) provide insights into advantageous design modifications for closely related structures having potential utility in long-wavelength electrooptic applications.

Efficient light harvesting by using green Zn-porphyrin-sensitized nanocrystalline TiO2 films

A series of novel zinc metalloporphyrins, cyano-3-(2'-(5',10',15',20'-tetraphenylporphyrinato zinc(II))yl)-acrylic acid (Zn-3), 3-(trans-2'-(5',10',15',20'-tetraphenylporphyrinato zinc(II))yl)-acrylic acid (Zn-5), 2-cyano-5-(2'-(5',10',15',20'-tetraphenylporphyrinato zinc(II))yl)-penta-2,4-dienoic acid (Zn-8), 4-(trans-2'-(2' '-(5' ',10' ',15' ',20' '-tetraphenylporphyrinato zinc(II))yl)ethen-1'-yl))-1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid (Zn-11), and 2-cyano-3-[4'-(trans-2' '-(2' '-(5' ',10' ',15' ',20' '-tetraphenylporphyrinato zinc(II))yl) ethen-1' '-yl)-phenyl]-acrylic acid (Zn-13) were synthesized and characterized by using various spectroscopic techniques. Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) calculations show that key molecular orbitals (MOs) of porphyrins Zn-5 and Zn-3 are stabilized and extended out onto the substituent by pi-conjugation, causing enhancement and red shifts of visible transitions and increasing the possibility of electron transfer from the substituent. The porphyrins were investigated for conversion of sunlight into electricity by constructing dye-sensitized TiO(2) solar cells using an I(-)/I(3)(-) electrolyte. The cells yield close to 85% incident photon-to-current efficiencies (IPCEs), and under standard AM 1.5 sunlight, the Zn-3-sensitized solar cell demonstrates a short circuit photocurrent density of 13.0 +/- 0.5 mA/cm(2), an open-circuit voltage of 610 +/- 50 mV, and a fill factor of 0.70 +/- 0.03. This corresponds to an overall conversion efficiency of 5.6%, making it the most efficient porphyrin-sensitized solar cell reported to date.

Ultrafast singlet excited-state polarization in electronically asymmetric ethyne-bridged bis[(porphinato)zinc(II)] complexes

The excited-state dynamics of two conjugated bis[(porphinato)zinc(II)] (bis[PZn]) species, bis[(5,5'-10,20-bis[3,5-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]ethyne (DD) and [(5,-10,20-bis[3,5-bis(3,3-dimethyl-1-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II)]-[(5',-15'-ethynyl-10',20'-bis(heptafluoropropyl)porphinato)zinc(II)]ethyne (DA), were studied by pump-probe transient absorption spectroscopy and hole burning techniques. Both of these meso-to-meso ethyne-bridged bis[PZn] compounds display intense near-infrared (NIR) transient S(1)-->S(n) absorptions and fast relaxation of their initially prepared, electronically excited Q states. Solvational and conformational relaxation play key roles in both DD and DA ground- and excited-state dynamics; in addition to these processes that drive spectral diffusion, electronically excited DA manifests a 3-fold diminution of S(1)-->S(0) oscillator strength on a 2-20 ps time scale. Both DD and DA display ground-state and time-dependent excited-state conformational heterogeneity; hole burning experiments show that this conformational heterogeneity is reflected largely by the extent of porphyrin-porphyrin conjugation, which varies as a function of the pigment-pigment dihedral angle distribution. While spectral diffusion can be seen for both compounds, rotational dynamics driving configurational averaging (tau approximately 30 ps), along with a small solvational contribution, account for essentially all of the spectral changes observed for electronically excited DD. For DA, supplementary relaxation processes play key roles in the excited-state dynamics. Two fast solvational components (0.27 and 1.7 ps) increase the DA excited-state dipole moment and reduce concomitantly the corresponding S(1)-->S(0) transition oscillator strength; these data show that these effects derive from a time-dependent change of the degree of DA S(1)-state polarization, which is stimulated by solvation and enhanced excited-state inner-sphere structural relaxation.

Solution self-assembly, spontaneous deprotonation, and crystal structures of bipyrazolate-bridged metallomacrocycles with dimetal centers

A series of nanosized cavity-containing bipyrazolate-bridged metallomacrocycles with dimetal centers, namely, {[(bpy)M]8L4}(NO3)8 [L=3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-4,4'-bipyrazolyl, Pd, Pt; 1,4-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbenzene), Pd; and 1,4-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbiphenyl, Pd], {[(phen)M]8L4}(NO3)8 [L=3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-4,4'-bipyrazolyl, Pd, Pt; 1,4-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbenzene, Pd; and 1,4-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbiphenyl, Pd], {[(bpy)Pd]6L3}(NO3)6 [L=1,4-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbenzene,], {[(phen)Pd]6L3}(NO3)6 [L=1,4-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbenzene,], {[(bpy)Pd]4L2}(NO3)4 [L=1,3-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbenzene, and 1,2-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbenzene,], and {[(phen)Pd]4L2}(NO3)4 [L=1,3-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbenzene, and 1,2-bis-4'-(3',5'-dimethyl)-pyrazolylbenzene,] (where bpy=2,2'-bipyridine and phen=1,10-phenanthroline) have been synthesized through a directed self-assembly approach that involves spontaneous deprotonation of the 1H-bipyrazolyl ligands in aqueous solution. These complexes, with weak Pd(II)...Pd(II) or Pt(II)...Pt(II) interactions, have been characterized by elemental analysis, 1H and 13C NMR, cold-spray ionization or electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, UV-visible spectroscopy, and luminescence spectroscopy. Complexes and have also been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.     

Synthesis, structure, redox properties, and catalytic activity of new ruthenium complexes containing neutral or anionic and facial or meridional ligands: an evaluation of electronic and geometrical effects

The synthesis of a family of new Ru complexes containing meridional or facial tridentate ligands with the general formula [Ru(II)(T)(D)(X)](n+) [T = 2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine or tripyrazolylmethane; D = 4,4'-dibenzyl-4,4',5,5'-tetrahydro-2,2'-bioxazole (S,S-box-C) or 2-[((1'S)-1'-(hydroxymethyl)-2'-phenyl)ethylcarboxamide]-(4S)-4-benzyl-4,5-dihydrooxazole (S,S-box-O); X = Cl, H(2)O, MeCN or pyridine] has been described. All complexes have been spectroscopically characterized in solution through (1)H NMR and UV-vis techniques. Furthermore, all of the chloro complexes presented here have also been characterized in the solid state through monocrystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The oxazolinic S,S-box-C ligands undergo a Ru-assisted hydrolysis reaction generating the corresponding amidate anionic oxazolinic ligands S,S-box-O, which are also strongly attached to the metal center and produce a strong sigma-donation effect over the Ru metal center. The redox properties of all complexes have also been studied by means of cyclic voltammetry, strongly reflecting the nature of the ligands; both effects, geometrical (facial vs meridional) and electronic (neutral vs anionic), can be unveiled and rationalized. Finally, the reactivity of the Ru-OH(2) complexes has been tested with regard to the epoxidation of trans-stilbene, and it has been shown that, in this particular case, the reactivity is practically not dependent on the redox potentials of the catalyst but, in sharp contrast, it is strongly dependent on the geometry of the tridentate ligands.     

Potentiometric, electronic structural, and ground- and excited-state optical properties of conjugated bis[(porphinato)zinc(II)] compounds featuring proquinoidal spacer units

We report the synthesis, optical, electrochemical, electronic structural, and transient optical properties of conjugated (porphinato)zinc(II)-spacer-(porphinato)zinc(II) (PZn-Sp-PZn) complexes that possess intervening conjugated Sp structures having varying degrees of proquinoidal character. These supermolecular PZn-Sp-PZn compounds feature Sp moieties {(4,7-diethynylbenzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (E-BTD-E), 6,13-diethynylpentacene (E-PC-E), 4,9-diethynyl-6,7-dimethyl[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline (E-TDQ-E), and 4,8-diethynylbenzo[1,2-c:4,5-c']bis([1,2,5]thiadiazole) (E-BBTD-E)} that regulate frontier orbital energy levels and progressively increase the extent of the quinoidal resonance contribution to the ground and electronically excited states, augmenting the magnitude of electronic communication between terminal (5,-10,20-di(aryl)porphinato)zinc(II) units, relative to that evinced for a bis[(5,5',-10,20-di(aryl)porphinato)zinc(II)]butadiyne benchmark (PZnE-EPZn). Electronic absorption spectra show significant red-shifts of the respective PZn-Sp-PZn x-polarized Q state (S0 --> S1) transition manifold maxima (240-4810 cm(-1)) relative to that observed for PZnE-EPZn. Likewise, the potentiometrically determined PZn-Sp-PZn HOMO-LUMO gaps (E1/2(0/+) - E1/2(-/0)) display correspondingly diminished energy separations that range from 1.88 to 1.11 eV relative to that determined for PZnE-EPZn (2.01 eV). Electronic structure calculations provide insight into the origin of the observed PZn-Sp-PZn electronic and optical properties. Pump-probe transient spectral data for these PZn-Sp-PZn supermolecules demonstrate that the S1 --> S(n) transition manifolds of these species span an unusually broad spectral domain of the NIR. Notably, the absorption maxima of these S1 --> S(n) manifolds can be tuned over a 1000-1600 nm spectral region, giving rise to intense excited-state transitions approximately 4000 cm(-1) lower in energy than that observed for the analogous excited-state absorption maximum of the PZnE-EPZn benchmark; these data highlight the unusually large quinoidal resonance contribution to the low-lying electronically excited singlet states of these PZn-Sp-PZn species. The fact that the length scales of the PZn-Sp-PZn species (approximately 25 angstrom) are small with respect to those of classic conducting polymers, yet possess NIR S1 --> S(n) manifold absorptions lower in energy, underscore the unusual electrooptic properties of these conjugated structures.     

Synthesis and antiarrhythmic activity of 2,2-dialkyl-1'-(N-substituted aminoalkyl)-spiro-(chroman-4,4'-imidazolidine)-2',5'-diones.

A novel series of 2,2-dialkyl-1'-(N-substituted aminoalkyl)-spiro-[chroman-4,4' -imidazolidine]-2',5'-diones was synthesized and evaluated for antiarrhythmic activity in chloroform- or/and aconitine-induced ventricular arrhythmia in mice. Among these compounds, (-)-6-chloro-2,2-dimethyl-1'-[3-(4-hydroxypiperidino)propyl] -spiro-[chroman-4,4'-imidazolidine]-2',5' -dione was found to be more effective than reference agents and was selected for further development.
