Half-sandwich Ru(II), Ir(III) and Rh(III) complexes with bridging or chelating N-heterocyclic bis-carbene ligand: Synthesis and characterization

N-heterocyclic bis-carbene ligand (bis-NHC) which was derived from 1,1′-diisopropyl-3,3′-ethylenediimidazolium dibromide (L·2HBr) via silver carbene transfer method, reacted with [(η⁶-p-cymene)RuCl₂]₂ and [Cp^∗MCl₂]₂ (Cp^∗ = η⁵-C₅Me_5, M = Ir, Rh) respectively, afforded complexes [(η⁶-p-cymene)RuCl₂]₂(L) (1), [Cp^∗IrCl₂]₂(L) (2) and [Cp^∗RhCl(L)][Cp^∗RhCl₃] (3). When [Cp^∗IrCl₂]₂ was treated with 2 equiv AgOTf at first, and then reacted with bis-NHC ligand, [Cp^∗IrCl(L)]OTf (4) was obtained. The molecular structures of complexes 1-4 were determined by X-ray single crystal analysis, showing that 1 and 2 adopted bridging coordination mode, 3 and 4 adopted chelating coordination mode. All of these complexes were characterized by ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and element analysis.     

Synthesis and characterization of cyclotetraphosphato complexes of Rh(I), Ir(I), Ru(II), and Pd(II)

The cyclotetraphosphate ion (P(4)O(12)(4)(-)) as a PPN (PPN = (PPh(3))(2)N(+)) salt reacts with [MCl(cod)](2) (M = Rh, Ir; cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) to give the dinuclear complexes (PPN)(2)[[M(cod)](2)(P(4)O(12))], in which the two metal moieties are situated trans to each other with respect to the P(4)O(4) ring in the solid state. In solution, however, these complexes exist as mixtures of trans and cis isomers. On the other hand, the P(4)O(12)(4)(-) ion reacts with 4 equiv of [Rh(cod)(MeCN)(x)](+) cation to give the tetranuclear complex [[Rh(cod)](4)(P(4)O(12))], where the four Rh(cod) fragments are bound to the P(4)O(12) platform alternately on both sides of the P(4)O(4) ring. Dinuclear P(4)O(12) complexes of ruthenium and palladium are also synthesized.

Trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium bromide as extractant for Rh(III), Ru(III) and Pt(IV) from chloride solutions

Ruthenium, rhodium and platinum are the most expensive of noble metals. As their natural sources are limited, it is important to develop an effective process for recovering Rh, Ru and Pt from waste sources. Their main suppliers are the following industries: chemical (spent catalysts), automotive, jewellery, dental and petrochemical. This paper presents studies on the extraction of Rh(III), Ru(III) and Pt(IV) from model aqueous chloride solutions using trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium bromide (Cyphos IL 102). The effects of different parameters such as the influence of shaking time, HCl and NaCl concentrations in the feed solutions and also Cyphos IL 102 concentration in the organic phase, on the extraction of these metal ions were investigated. Additionally, the effect of the ageing of Rh(III) and Ru(III) chloride solutions on the extraction of these metal ions was studied.     

Complexes of Rh(III), Ir(III), and Pt(IV) with metallated 2-(n-tolyl)pyridine,ethylendiamine, acetate,and diethyldithiocarbamate ligands

The highest occupied and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals were assigned to d _π and π*_ptpy orbitals of the metal and the metallated ligand. Luminescence of the complexes in the visible spectral region was assigned to the spin-forbidden optical transition from the lowest energy state of the mixed nature (π_ptpy-π*_ptpy/d _x -π*_ptpy).

These new complexes have been characterized by IR, UV-Vis, multinuclear (¹H, ¹³C, and ¹¹⁹Sn) NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry, as well as elemental analysis.     

Synthesis and spectral characterization of homo-and hetero-dinuclear complexes with a new septadentate Schiff base ligand

Synthesis, characterization, and photochemical properties of azobenzene-conjugated Ru(II) and Rh(III) bis(terpyridine) complexes

We synthesized azobenzene-conjugated bis(terpyridine) Ru(II) and Rh(III) mononuclear and dinuclear complexes and investigated their photochemical properties on excitation of the azo pi-pi band upon 366 nm light irradiation. The Ru mononuclear complex underwent trans-to-cis photoisomerization to reach the photostationary state with only 20% of the cis form, while the Ru dinuclear complex did not isomerize at all photochemically. On the other hand, the mononuclear and dinuclear Rh complexes showed almost complete trans-to-cis photoisomerization behavior. Cis forms of the Rh complexes thermally returned to the trans form at a much slower rate than those of organic azobenzenes, but they did not isomerize photochemically. The reduction potential of the cis forms was 80 mV more negative than that of the trans forms. The photoisomerization quantum yields of the Rh complexes were strongly dependent on the polarity, viscosity, and donor site of the solvents as well as the size of the counterions. We investigated the photoisomerization process of these complexes using femtosecond absorption spectroscopy. For the Rh complexes, we observed S(n) <-- S(2) and S(n) <-- S(1) absorption bands similar to those of organic azobenzenes. For the Ru complexes, we observed very fast bleaching of the MLCT band of the Ru complex, which indicated that the energy transfer pathway to the MLCT was the primary cause of the depressed photoisomerization. The electronic structures, which were estimated from ZINDO molecular orbital calculation, supported the different photochemical reaction behavior between the Ru and Rh complexes.     

Luminescent cyclometalated Rh(III), Ir(III), and (DIP)2Ru(II) complexes with carboxylated bipyridyl ligands: synthesis, X-ray molecular structure, and photophysical properties

Luminescent cyclometalated rhodium(III) and iridium(III) complexes of the general formula [M(ppy) 2(N (wedge)N)][PF 6], with N (wedge)N = Hcmbpy = 4-carboxy-4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine and M = Rh ( 1), Ir ( 2) and N (wedge)N = H 2dcbpy = 4,4'-dicarboxy-2,2'-bipyridine and M = Rh ( 3), Ir ( 4), were prepared in high yields and fully characterized. The X-ray molecular structure of the monocarboxylic iridium complex [Ir(ppy) 2(Hcmbpy)][PF 6] ( 2) was also determined. The photophysical properties of these compounds were studied and showed that the photoluminescence of rhodium complexes 1 and 3 and iridium complexes 2 and 4 originates from intraligand charge-transfer (ILCT) and metal-to-ligand charge-transfer/ligand-centered MLCT/LC excited states, respectively. For comparison purposes, the mono- and dicarboxylic acid ruthenium complexes [Ru(DIP) 2(Hcmbpy)][Cl] 2 ( 5) and [Ru(DIP) 2(H 2dcbpy)][Cl] 2 ( 6), where DIP = 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline, were also prepared, whose emission is MLCT in nature. Comparison of the photophysical behavior of these rhodium(III), iridium(III), and ruthenium(II) complexes reveals the influence of the carboxylic groups that affect in different ways the ILCT, MLCT, and LC states.

Silylation coupled with desilylation have been employed as a route to new organovanadium(IV) complexes. All the complexes have been characterized with the help of elemental analyses, molar conductance values, molecular weights, magnetic moments and spectroscopic (IR, UV-Vis, ESR) data.

Synthesis and structures of monomeric [chloro(isatin-3-thiosemicarbazone)bis(triphenylphosphine)]copper(I) and dimeric [dichlorobis(thiophene-2-carbaldehyde thiosemicarbazone)bis(triphenylphosphine)]dicopper(I)] complexes

Reaction of copper(I) chloride with thiophene-2-carbaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (Httsc) in acetonitrile in the presence of Ph₃P yielded a sulfur-bridged dimer [Cu₂Cl₂(μ₂-S-Httsc)₂(PPh₃)₂] · 2CH₃CN (1), while a similar reaction with isatin-3-thiosemicarbazone (H₂itsc) formed a monomer, [CuCl(H₂itsc)(Ph₃P)₂] · 2CH₃CN (3). Furan-2-carbaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (Hftsc) also formed a compound of the composition [Cu₂Cl₂(Hftsc)₂(PPh₃)₂] · 2H₂O (2). Complexes 1–3 have been characterized using elemental analysis, IR, ¹H and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray crystallography (1 and 3). Acetonitrile is engaged in hydrogen bonding with the chlorine atom {NCCH₂–H?Cl)}, which is necessary for the stabilization of the bridging sulfur in 1. In compound 3, however, acetonitrile is strongly hydrogen bonded to the NH hydrogen of the isatin ring {CH₃CN?NH(isatin)} and not to the chlorine atom. The Cu?Cu contact of 2.7719(5) Å in dimer 1 is close to twice the van der Waals radius of the Cu atom (2.80 Å).
