RESUMO

A cyclometalated iridium(III) complex bearing a self-immolative quinolinium moiety was developed as a ratiometric substrate for transfer hydrogenation studies. This photoluminescent probe allowed the rapid screening of a variety of Ir catalysts using a microplate reader, offering a convenient method to assess activity using a minimum amount of catalyst sample.

RESUMO

Ligand-based functionalization strategies have emerged as powerful approaches to tune and optimize blue phosphorescence, which can involve nucleophilic addition to coordinated ligands or electrophilic functionalization via the coordination of exogenous Lewis acids. Whereas both have been used separately to enhance the photophysical properties of organometallic compounds with high-energy triplet states, in this work, we show that these two strategies can be used together on the same platform. Isocyanide-supported cyclometalated platinum compounds undergo nucleophilic addition with diethylamine to form a strong σ-donor acyclic diaminocarbene-supporting ligand. In a subsequent step, a cyanide ancillary ligand is converted into a more strongly π-acidic isocyanoborate via the coordination of a borane Lewis acid. Importantly, both of these ligand-based functionalization steps improve the quantum yields and lifetimes of the blue-phosphorescent complexes. This synergy results in complexes with photoluminescence quantum yields up to 0.40 for deep blue and 0.75 for sky blue regions and PL lifetimes on the order of 10-5 s.

RESUMO

In this work, we present a series of luminescent platinum acetylide complexes with acetylides that are electronically modified and/or π-extended. Six isocyanide-supported complexes with the general formula cis-[Pt(CNAr)2(C≡CR)2] and six acyclic diaminocarbene (ADC) complexes of the form trans-[Pt(ADC)2(C≡CR)2], all using the same five acetylide ligands, are described. The compounds are characterized by multinuclear NMR, FT-IR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In most cases, the phosphorescence arises from an acetylide-centered 3(π → π*) excited state, although in one of the isocyanide compounds there is evidence for a charge-transfer excited state. The photoluminescence wavelength depends strongly on the substitution pattern and extent of the π conjugation on the acetylide, with maxima spanning the range of ca. 460-540 nm. Most photoluminescence lifetimes are long, beyond 50 µs, and quantum yields are low to moderate, 0.043-0.27. The photoluminescence quantum yields and lifetimes in these compounds do not systematically improve in the ADC complexes compared to the isocyanide versions, suggesting the neutral ligand σ-donor character does not play a large role in the excited-state dynamics when the triplet excited state is delocalized over a large π system.

RESUMO

The lack of red and deep-red emitting molecular phosphors with high photoluminescence quantum yields remains a significant fundamental challenge and has implications in optoelectronic technologies for color displays and other consumer products. In this work, we introduce a series of seven new red or deep-red emitting heteroleptic bis-cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes, supported by five different ancillary ligands (L^X) from the salicylaldimine and 2-picolinamide families. Previous work had shown that electron-rich anionic chelating "L^X" ligands can be effective in supporting efficient red phosphorescence, and the complementary approach described here, in addition to being synthetically simpler, offers two key advantages over the previous designs. First, the "L" and "X" functionalities can be independently tuned, providing excellent control over the electronic energy levels and excited-state dynamics. Second, these classes of L^X ligands can have beneficial impacts on the excited-state dynamics but do not significantly perturb the emission color profile. Cyclic voltammetry experiments show that the substituents on the L^X ligand impact the HOMO energy but have a minimal effect on the LUMO energy. Photoluminescence measurements reveal that all the compounds luminesce in the red or deep-red region as a function of the cyclometalating ligand and exhibit exceptionally high photoluminescence quantum yields (ΦPL), comparable or superior to the best-performing red-emitting iridium complexes.

RESUMO

The lack of efficient and robust deep-blue phosphorescent metal complexes remains a significant challenge in the context of electroluminescent color displays. The emissive triplet states of blue phosphors are deactivated by low-lying metal-centered (3MC) states, which can be ameliorated by increasing the σ-donating ability of the supporting ligands. Here we unveil a synthetic strategy to access blue-phosphorescent complexes with two supporting acyclic diaminocarbenes (ADCs), known to be even stronger σ-donors than N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). This new class of platinum complexes has excellent photoluminescence quantum yields, with four of six complexes affording deep-blue emission. Experimental and computational analyses are consistent with a pronounced destabilization of the 3MC states by the ADCs.

RESUMO

Controlling the chain growth process in non-living polymerization reactions is difficult because chain termination typically occurs faster than the time it takes to apply an external trigger. To overcome this limitation, we have developed a strategy to regulate non-living polymerizations by exploiting the chemical equilibria between a metal catalyst and secondary metal cations. We have prepared two nickel phenoxyphosphine-polyethylene glycol variants, one with 2-methoxyphenyl (Ni1) and another with 2,6-dimethoxyphenyl (Ni2) phosphine substituents. Ethylene polymerization studies using these complexes in the presence of alkali salts revealed that chain growth is strongly dependent on electronic effects, whereas chain termination is dependent on both steric and electronic effects. By adjusting the solvent polarity, we can favor polymerizations via non-switching or dynamic switching modes. For example, in a 100:0.2 mixture of toluene/diethyl ether, reactions of Ni1 and both Li+ and Na+ cations in the presence of ethylene yielded bimodal polymers with different relative fractions depending on the Li+/Na+ ratio used. In a 98:2 mixture of toluene/diethyl ether, reactions of Ni2 and Cs+ in the presence of ethylene generated monomodal polyethylene with dispersity <2.0 and increasing molecular weight as the amount of Cs+ added increased. Solution studies by NMR spectroscopy showed that cation exchange between the nickel complexes and alkali cations in 98:2 toluene/diethyl ether is fast on the NMR time scale, which supports our proposed dynamic switching mechanism.

RESUMO

We introduce phosphorescent platinum aryl acetylide complexes supported by tert-butyl-isocyanide and strongly σ-donating acyclic diaminocarbene (ADC) ligands. The precursor complexes cis-[Pt(CNtBu)2(C≡CAr)2] (4a-4f) are treated with diethylamine, which undergoes nucleophilic addition with one of the isocyanides to form the cis-[Pt(CNtBu)(ADC)(C≡CAr)2] complexes (5a-5f). The new compounds incorporate either electron-donating groups (4-OMe and 4-NMe2) or electron-withdrawing groups [3,5-(OMe)2, 3,5-(CF3)2, 4-CN, and 4-NO2] on the aryl acetylide. Experimental HOMO-LUMO gaps, estimated from cyclic voltammetry, span the range of 2.68-3.61 eV and are in most cases smaller than the unsubstituted parent complex, as corroborated by DFT. In the ADC complexes, peak photoluminescence wavelengths span the range of 428 nm (2a, unsubstituted phenylacetylide) to 525 nm (5f, 4-NO2-substituted), with the substituents inducing a red shift in all cases. The phosphorescence E0,0 values and electrochemical HOMO-LUMO gaps are loosely correlated, showing that both can be reduced by either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents on the aryl acetylides. The photoluminescence quantum yields in the ADC complexes are between 0.044 and 0.31 and the lifetimes are between 4.8 and 14 µs, a factor of 1.8-10× higher (for ΦPL) and 1.2-3.6× longer (for τ) than the respective isocyanide precursor (ΦPL = 0.014-0.12, τ = 2.8-8.2 µs).

RESUMO

In this Perspective, we highlight many examples of photoluminescent metal complexes supported by isocyanides, with an emphasis on recent developments including several from our own group. Work in this field has shown that the isocyanide can play important structural roles, both as a terminal ligand and as a bridging ligand for polynuclear structures, and can influence the excited-state character and excited-state dynamics. In addition, there are many examples of isocyanide-supported complexes where the isocyanide serves as a chromophoric ligand, meaning the low-energy excited states that are important in the photochemistry are partially or completely localized on the isocyanide. Finally, an emerging trend in the design of luminescent compounds is to use the isocyanide as an electrophilic precursor, converted to an acyclic carbene by nucleophilic addition which imparts certain photophysical advantages. This Perspective aims to show the diverse roles played by isocyanides in the design of luminescent compounds, showcasing the recent developments that have led to a substantial growth in fundamental knowledge, function, and applications related to photoluminescence.
