To explore the photophysical properties of coordination compounds with bright blue fluorescence an azomethin-zinc complex was synthesized and characterized by various techniques (EA, TG, IR-mass-spectroscopy). The crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. Through thermal characterization this complex was proved to have good thermal stability. Photoluminescence spectra were
Graphical abstractNew cationic heteroleptic Ln(III) complexes with acetylacetonate and bis(5-(pyridine-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)propane basis are synthesized. The complexes are characterized by various means, including single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Electronic absorption and emission spectra of the compounds both in solid and solutions are studied.
Organometallic blue
fluorescent Zn(II) Schiff base complexes are
synthesized and explored computationally in order to use them in organic
electroluminescent heterostructures. Characterization of these pyrazolone-based
azomethine–zinc complexes was accomplished by various physicochemical
techniques to get insight into their applicability as an active layer
in light-emitting diodes. All the complexes demonstrate high thermal
stability and remarkable photoluminescence both in solution and in
the solid state with maximum in the blue region. Quantum chemical
calculations of the first exited electronic state and vertical singlet–singlet
electronic transitions by means of time-dependent density functional
theory calculations and results show that the origin of the luminescence
for the target complexes refers to the intraligand charge transfer
within the Schiff bases. The constructed light-emitting diodes demonstrate
low input voltage (3.2–4.0 V), brightness at a level of 4300–11,600
Cd m–2, and external quantum efficiency of up to
3.2%, which is a good value for purely fluorescent organic light-emitting
diodes.
Nine new mononuclear and polynuclear Cu(II) complexes [Cu(H2L(2))Cl]Cl·3H2O (1), [Cu(H2L(3))Cl]Cl·H2O (2), [Cu(H2L(4))Cl]Cl·2.5H2O (3), [Cu3(μ(3)-L(1))2(H2O)3](ClO4)2·H2O (4), [Cu4(μ-HL(1))4](ClO4)8·CH3OH·5H2O (5), [Cu2(HL(3))2](ClO4)2·2H2O (6a), [Cu2(μ-HL(3))2](ClO4)2·H2O (6b), [Cu2(μ-HL(3))(L(3))Cu(teta)](ClO4)3·2H2O (7) and [Cu2(H2L(3))2(ox)](ClO4)2·2H2O·2MeOH (8) containing [5-(2-pyridine-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl]alkanes (H2L(n), n = 1-4) in combination with other ligands, such as chlorido, aqua, triethylenetetramine (teta) and/or oxalato (ox(2-)), were synthesized and characterized by various techniques such as elemental analysis, FTIR, NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy. X-ray structures of H2L(3) and H2L(4) as well as complexes 1-8 were determined. The X-ray structures revealed that relatively small composition and structural changes in the H2L(n) ligands have a substantial impact on the coordination geometries of the complexes themselves as well as on their resulting magnetic properties. It has been found that the geometries of the complexes vary from square-pyramidal to trigonal-bipyramidal (with τ ranging from 0.00 to 0.96) and, moreover, that the trigonal bipyramidal geometry becomes more preferable with the increase in the length of the polymethylene chain within the corresponding H2L(n) ligand. The magnetic properties of the polynuclear compounds 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 were analysed using the spin Hamiltonian formalism, which revealed the presence of antiferromagnetic exchange in the polynuclear systems mediated by the title ligands. The significant effect of the geometric parameters on the Cu···Cu exchange interactions in the polynuclear complexes is discussed.
New bi- and trinuclear copper(ii) complexes of aroylhydrazones of TFA and benzenecarboxylic acids were synthesized and characterized. Despite long range intramolecular CuCu distances of about 10 Å, exchange couplings between paramagnetic centres are observed with J values of 0.33 and 0.37 cm(-1) in binuclear complexes, and -0.33 cm(-1) in trinuclear complexes. Seven hyperfine peaks with a value of aCu = 37.0 × 10(-4) cm(-1) are observed in EPR spectra of binuclear complexes. The possible mechanisms responsible for the observed weak long range coupling via aromatic spacers are discussed.
We report the coordination flexibility of phosphino-thiosemicarbazone in ruthenium(ii) complexes, together with their catalytic properties with regards to N-alkylation.
