Abstract
  • Four RuII complexes of general formula [Ru(PT)3]2+, [Ru(NT)3]2+, [Ru(PT)(bpy)2]2+, and [Ru(NT)(bpy)2]2+, where PT = 10,13-bis((triisopropylsilyl)ethynyl)dipyrido[3,2-a:20 ,30 -c]phenazine, NT = 10,15-bis((triiso- propylsilyl)ethynyl)benzo[i]dipyrido[3,2-a:20 ,30 -c]phenazine and bpy = 2,20 -bipyridine have been synthesized. Their electrochemical and photophysical properties have been studied, with the aid of DFT and TD-DFT theoretical methods. The extended phenanthroline ligand PT exhibits two reduction pro- cesses at ?0.98 and ?1.55 (versus SCE) and no clearly detectable oxidation processes; the more extended analogue NT is substantially easier to reduce by about 300 mV. In the four complexes, the two first reduc- tion processes are centered on the extended phenanthroline ligands, and, according to DFT calculations, also oxidations are likely to be located on such moieties. PT and NT exhibit green-yellow fluorescence at 298 and 77 K with photoluminescence quantum yields of 3.4% and 62.1%, respectively, at room temper- ature. At 77 K, a strong and long-lived phosphorescence is detected only for PT (kmax = 658 nm, s = 29 ms). In oxygen-free solution at 298 K [Ru(PT)3]2+ and [Ru(PT)(bpy)2]2+ exhibit a very weak emis- sion band with kmax at about 700 nm, which extends towards the near infrared region and is unambigu- ously attributed to emission from the lowest triplet level centered on the PT ligand; its emission intensity is strongly enhanced at 77 K where lifetimes of 724 and 767 ns are measured for [Ru(PT)3]2+ and [Ru(PT)(bpy)2]2+, respectively. The two complexes with the NT ligand show no triplet emission as observed for the PT analogues, but only a faint fluorescence signal attributable to negligible amounts of free ligand in solution. Photophysical data are fully rationalized with DFT methods, which always predict that the lowest triplet excited state is centered on the extended phenanthroline ligand in all of the investigated RuII complexes. The estimated energy of the lowest triplet level of the PT-based com- pounds is in good agreement with the experimental value determined from the phosphorescence spectra. Moreover, the theoretical model rationalizes the lack of phosphorescence for the NT series, because the lowest triplet is estimated to be at 0.97 eV above the ground state (?1280 nm), where non-radiative deactivations prevail.
