Photofunctional triplet excited states of cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes: beyond electroluminescence

The development of cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes has enabled important breakthroughs in electroluminescence because such complexes permit the efficient population of triplet excited states that give rise to luminescent transitions. The triplet states of Ir(III) complexes are advantageous over those of other transition metal complexes in that their electronic transitions and charge-transfer characteristics are tunable over wide ranges. These favorable properties suggest that Ir(III) complexes have significant potential in a variety of photofunctions other than electroluminescence. In this critical review, we describe recent photonic applications of novel Ir(III) complexes. Ir(III) complexes have been shown to affect the exciton statistics in the active layers of organic photovoltaic cells, thereby improving the photon-to-current conversion efficiencies. Nonlinear optical applications that take advantage of the strong charge-transfer properties of triplet transitions are also discussed. The tunability of the electrochemical potentials facilitates the development of efficient photocatalysis in the context of water photolysis or organic syntheses. The photoredox reactivities of Ir(III) complexes have been employed in studies of charge migration along DNA chains. The photoinduced cytotoxicity of Ir(III) complexes on live cells suggests that the complexes may be useful in photodynamic therapy. Potential biological applications of the complexes include phosphorescence labeling and sensing. Intriguing platforms based on cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes potentially provide novel protein tagging and ratiometric detection. We envision that future research into the photofunctionality of Ir(III) complexes will provide important breakthroughs in a variety of photonic applications.

Preparation and luminescence properties of lanthanide (Eu3+, Sm3+) complexes and their hectorite-based composites

The complexes of europium and samarium with phthalates ligands were synthesized and characterized. The luminescence behaviors of the lanthanide complexes as well as their hectorite-based composites were investigated by fluorescence spectra. The results indicated that the lanthanide complexes showed slightly lower intensities in hectorite matrix than that of corresponding pure complexes. The lanthanide ion relative fluorescence intensity (LRFI) was enhanced when the lanthanide complexes were doped into hectorite.

The 2-alkoxyimidate-1,10-phenanthroline complexes of manganese, cobalt and nickel have been synthesized by the reaction of 2-cyano-1,10-phenanthroline with metal dichloride in the corresponding alcohol. The metal complexes bearing two 2-cyano-1,10-phenanthrolines were isolated in non-protonic solvent as the coordination around metal core with two ligands and two chlorides. The alkoxyimidation of nitrile linked on ligand was speeded in forming the 2-alkoxyimidate-1,10-phenanthrolinyl metal complexes. All the complexes have been characterized by FT-IR spectra and elemental analysis, and some of their structures have also been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. All the metal complexes were evaluated in the catalytic oligomerization of ethylene with some alkylaluminums as co-catalyst; in which manganese complexes were less active, cobalt complexes showed low to moderate activities, and nickel complexes gave moderate to good activities.

Spectroscopic, cyclic voltammetric and biological studies of transition metal complexes with mixed nitrogen-sulphur (NS) donor macrocyclic ligand derived from thiosemicarbazide

The complexation of new mixed thia-aza-oxa macrocycle viz., 2,12-dithio-5,9,14,18-tetraoxo-7,16-dithia-1,3,4,10,11,13-hexaazacyclooctadecane containing thiosemicarba-zone unit with a series of transition metals Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) has been investigated, by different spectroscopic techniques. The structural features of the ligand have been studied by EI-mass, (1)H NMR and IR spectral techniques. Elemental analyses, magnetic moment susceptibility, molar conductance, IR, electronic, and EPR spectral studies characterized the complexes. Electronic absorption and IR spectra of the complexes indicate octahedral geometry for chloro, nitrato, thiocyanato or acetato complexes. The dimeric and neutral nature of the sulphato complexes are confirmed from magnetic susceptibility and low conductance values. Electronic spectra suggests square-planar geometry for all sulphato complexes. The redox behaviour was studied by cyclic voltammetry, show metal-centered reduction processes for all complexes. The complexes of copper show both oxidation and reduction process. The redox potentials depend on the conformation of central atom in the macrocyclic complexes. Newly synthesized macrocyclic ligand and its transition metal complexes show markedly growth inhibitory activity against pathogenic bacterias and plant pathogenic fungi under study. Most of the complexes have higher activity than that of the metal free ligand.     

Paramagnetic NMR shift,spectroscopic and molecular modeling studies of lanthanide(III)-morin complexes

Studies on nine-coordinate lanthanide complexes of morin are described. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, UV–Vis spectra, IR spectra, thermal analysis and NMR spectra. Molecular modeling studies were also carried out. The complexes are non-electrolytes in DMSO. TGA showed anhydrous nature of the complexes. The electronic spectra of the complexes were recorded in methanol. ¹H NMR spectra of lanthanum, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium and dysprosium complexes have been studied in DMSO-d₆. The complexes do not dissociate in DMSO and retain their coordination. ¹H NMR spectra of paramagnetic and diamagnetic complexes exhibit downfield as well as upfield shifts of morin resonances that shows change in geometry during coordination.

The data on lipid-nucleic interactions and their role in vitro and in vivo are presented. The results of study of DNA-lipid complexes in absence and in presence of divalent metal cations (triple complexes) are discussed. The triple complexes represent the generation of cellular structures such as pore complexes of eucaryotes and "Bayer's junctions" of procaryotes. The participation of triple complexes in the formation of structure of bacterial and eucaryotic nucleoid and nuclear matrix is analysed. A model of formation of triple complexes and cellular structures and their role in DNA-lipid interactions are discussed.     

Magnetic and spectral properties of oxovanadium(IV) complexes of schiff bases derived from halo-substituted salicylaldehyde and aniline

The magnetic and spectral properties of oxovanadium(IV) complexes of bidentate monobasic NO donor Schiff bases derived from 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde, 5-bromosalicyl-aldehyde and aniline are reported. In contrast to an earlier report that the complexes are involved in antiferromagnetic exchange, magnetic, ESR and molecular weight data indicate that the complexes are magnetically dilute. The complexes are monomers. The ESR spectra of the complexes in chloroform solutions show 8-line spectra characteristic of oxovanadium(IV) complexes which are not involved in magnetic exchange. The complexes exhibit magnetic moments in the range 1.73–1.75 B.M. at ~ 295 K and obey the Curie-Weiss law with θ = 0 to + 2 K indicating the absence of magnetic ordering in the temperature range 83–296 K.The electronic and infrared spectral data of the complexes are also reported. In contrast to an earlier suggestion of dimeric structure, a monomeric structure with square-pyramidal geometry is suggested for the complexes.     

Catalytic Activity of Polymer-Supported Neodymium Complexes in the Polymerization of Butadiene

The IR spectra of neodymium complexes supported on styrene-acrylic acid copolymer were investigated. The complexes possess a bidentate carboxylate structure, and the Nd?O bond in the complexes is highly covalent. The effect of the nature and constitution of the supported neodymium complexes on their activity in butadiene polymerization was studied. The copolymer was prepared in THF or dioxane was better for the synthesis of highly active supported complexes. Polymer-supported neodymium complexes containing about 12 wt% of -COOH gave optimum catalytic activity at a Nd/?COOH mole ratio of 0.20.     

Mass spectral behavior of some homoleptic and mixed aryldichalcogenide bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocenenickel(II), palladium(II), and platinum(II), and bis(diisopropylphosphino)ferrocenepalladium(II) complexes

The mass spectral behavior of a number of organometallic complexes containing the Group 10 metals Ni, Pd, and Pt, together with various thiolate ligands were studied. For Pd, two main types of complexes, differing by the substituents on the phosphorus atom were studied. Types I and II were substituted with bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene and bis(diisopropylphosphino)ferrocene ligands, respectively. The Ni complexes, except for one, and the Pd Type I complexes had no molecular radical cations (M(+.)) in their EI spectra. On the other hand, all the Pt complexes showed intense M(+.) ions in their EI spectra indicating that these complexes were more stable as radical cations than those of Ni and Pd. The FAB and MALDI spectra of all the complexes displayed intense quasi-molecular ions (MH(+)) and the fragmentations in both modes were similar. The MALDI spectra of several complexes displayed only M(+.) ions while one gave evidence of both MH(+) and M(+.) ions. Several Pd Type II complexes yielded intense M(+.) in their EI spectra.     

Synthesis and photoluminescence properties of BF2 complexes with 1,3-diketone ligands

BF₂ complexes with 1,3-diketone ligands were synthesized, and their optical and electrochemical properties were studied. The colors of the complexes varied depending on the structures of the 1,3-diketone ligands. The absorption and emission maxima of the complexes with 1,3-diaryl-1,3-diketone ligands were considerably red shifted as compared to those of the complexes with 1-aryl-3-trifluoromethyl-1,3-diketone ligands, suggesting an extended π-conjugation of the 1,3-diaryl-1,3-diketone moieties. The molar absorption coefficients and quantum yields of the complexes with 1,3-diaryl-1,3-diketone ligands were larger than those of the complexes with 1-aryl-3-trifluoromethyl-1,3-diketone ligands. Cyclic voltammetry measurements revealed that the reduction potentials of the BF₂ complexes were higher than those of the free ligands. These complexes exhibited various emission colors in the solid states due to the intermolecular interactions.
