Five platinum(II) 1,4,7-trithiacyclononane (ttcn) complexes with bidentate-substituted 2,2'-bipyridine ligands have been prepared and structurally characterized: [Pt(bpy)(ttcn)](PF6)2 (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine), triclinic, P1, a = 10.2529(3) A, b = 10.7791(3) A, c = 10.7867(3) A, alpha = 83.886(1) degrees, beta = 87.565(1) degrees, gamma = 84.901(1), V = 1179.99(6) A3, Z = 2; [Pt(4,4'-dmbpy)(ttcn)](PF6)2 x CH3CN x H2O (4,4'-dmbpy = 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine), triclinic, P1, a = 10.1895(3) A, b = 11.8566(4) A, c = 13.1004(4) A, alpha = 77.345(1) degrees, beta = 79.967(1) degrees, gamma = 72.341(1) degrees, V = 1461.56(8) A3, Z = 2; [Pt(5,5'-dmbpy)(ttcn)](PF6)2 (5,5'-dmbpy = 5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine), triclinic, P1, a = 10.6397(4) A, b = 10.8449(4) A, c = 11.2621(4) A, alpha = 90.035(1) degrees, beta = 98.061(1) degrees, gamma = 91.283(1) degrees, V = 1286.32(8) A3, Z = 2; [Pt(dbbpy)(ttcn)](PF6)2 x CH3NO2 (dbbpy = 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine), triclinic, P1, a = 11.5422(7) A, b = 11.6100(7) A, c = 13.6052(9) A, alpha = 85.902(1) degrees, beta = 89.675(1) degrees, gamma = 74.942(1) degrees, V = 1755.90(19) A3, Z = 2; and [Pt(dtfmbpy)(ttcn)](PF6)2 x CH3CN (dtfmbpy = 5,5'-di-trifluoromethyl-2,2'-bipyridine): monoclinic, P2(1)/c, a = 13.1187(9) A, b = 20.9031(15) A, c = 11.3815(8) A, beta = 105.789(2) degrees, V = 3003.3(4) A3, Z = 4. For each salt, the platinum(II) center of the cation is bonded to two nitrogen atoms of the chelating diimine and two sulfur atoms of the thioether macrocycle. The third sulfur atom of ttcn forms a long apical interaction with the metal center (2.84-2.97 A), resulting in a flattened square pyramid structure. An examination of these and 17 other structures of platinum(II) ttcn complexes reveals a correlation between the apical Pt...S distance and the donor properties of the ancillary ligands, suggesting a means for using variations in ligand electronic properties to tune molecular structure. The room-temperature absorption spectra in acetonitrile solution show a broad and comparatively low-energy MLCT band maximizing near approximately 390 nm for the bpy and dialkyl-substituted bipyridyl derivatives. The maximum is dramatically red-shifted to 460 nm in the spectrum of the dtfmbpy complex as a result of the electron-withdrawing properties of the -CF(3) groups. The 3:1 EtOH/MeOH 77 K glassy solution emission spectra exhibit low-energy emission bands (lambdamax, 570-645 nm), tentatively assigned as originating from a lowest, predominantly spin-forbidden MLCT excited state that is stabilized by apical Pt...S interactions.
The direct intercalation of a pyrazolate-bridged platinum(II) bipyridyl dimer ([{Pt(dmbpy)(μ-pz)}(2)](2+); dmbpy = 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine, pz(-) = pyrazolate) within a zirconium phosphate (ZrP) framework has been accomplished. The physical and spectroscopic properties of [{Pt(dmbpy)(μ-pz)}(2)](2+) intercalated in ZrP were investigated by X-ray powder diffraction and X-ray photoelectron, infrared, absorption, and luminescence spectroscopies. Zirconium phosphate layers have a special microenvironment that is capable of supporting a variety of platinum oxidation states. Diffuse reflectance spectra from powders of the blue-gray intercalated materials show the formation of a low-energy band at 600 nm that is not present in the platinum dimer salt. The nonintercalated complex is nonemissive in room-temperature fluid solution, but gives rise to intense blue-green emission in a 4:1 ethanol/methanol 77 K frozen glassy solution. Powders and colloidal suspensions of [{Pt(dmbpy)(μ-pz)}(2)](2+)-exchanged ZrP materials exhibit intense emissions at room-temperature.
The title complex, [Pt(C10H10N6)2](PF6)2·2CH3NO2, crystallizes with the Pt atom located on a crystallographic center of symmetry. The asymmetric unit comprises the anion, one‐half cation and a nitromethane molecule. The anions and solvent pack to form a zigzag ribbon motif, alternating with layers of cations. The extended packing consists of a network of C—H⋯O, C—H⋯N and C—H⋯F intermolecular interactions.
