Derivatives of Bis(2,2′-bipyridyl)dicyanoiron(II) with Long Alkyl Chains − Versatile Solvatochromic Probes that Form Metalloaggregates in Water-Rich Media

Abstract: We report on the preparation, characterisation, and solvatochromic behaviour of four new [FeL 2 (CN) 2 ] complexes, where L is the ligand 4,4Ј-diisobutyl-2,2Ј-bipyridine, 4,4Ј-din-pentyl-2,2Ј-bipyridine, 4,4Ј-di-n-heptyl-2,2Ј-bipyridíne, or 4-n-heptyl-4Ј-methyl-2,2Ј-bipyridine. The solvatochromic properties of these complexes show that the hydrophobicity imposed by the alkyl chains controls the response of the com-

“…with long alkyl groups are solvatochromic probes that aggregate in water-rich media. 33 [Fe(qtpy) 2 ](ClO 4 ) 2 is the first crystallographically established bis(quaterpyridine) complex. 34 Each ligand is only terdentate, with a terminal pyridine nitrogen uncoordinated, and the average Fe-N distance is some 0.26 Å longer than in [Fe(terpy) 2 ] 2ϩ , suggesting considerable mismatch of metal ion and ligand cavity.…”

“…Consequently, these metallic compounds display the characteristic properties of a surfactant (surface activity and self-assembly) and are a useful tool for achieving unique arrangements with metallic compounds such as concentrating metals in the interfaces or forming metal aggregates of different sizes (micelles and vesicles). Although this is a relatively new research field, , the singular properties of these compounds have been oriented to a wide range of potential applications including magnetic resonance imaging, templates for mesoporous materials, metallomesogens, optoelectronic devices, solvatochromic probes, homogeneous catalysis, medicine, and nanoparticles . Other works have been devoted to metal-containing soft materials or to the study of metallosurfactants of different metals such as cadmium(II), chromium(III), cobalt(III), , copper(II), iron(II), nickel(II), rhodium(I), ruthenium(II), , and zinc(II) .…”

“…Nevertheless, studies on the relationship between structure and the physicochemical properties of these metalloaggregates remain limited and deal exclusively with spherical micelles. In addition, these aggregates have been studied mainly in aqueous solutions, while there are only few known metallosurfactants that aggregate in organic solvents, and if so, they are only polar organic solvents such as methanol …”
