Luminescence and Resonance Raman Study of Molecular Distortions Caused by Ligand-Centered Transitions in Metal Acetylacetonate Complexes

Abstract: The low temperature emission spectra of metal acetylacetonate complexes are analyzed. Excited state distortions are determined by using a combination of resonance Raman spectroscopy, emission spectroscopy, and time-dependent theory. The bonds that are most highly distorted as a result of the transition are the C−C and O−C−C bonds on the ligand, supporting an assignment of the emission to a ligand-centered π−π* transition.

“…We explored this possibility and selected the hexafluoroacetylacetonates of Tl þ , Pb 2þ and Bi 3þ for the present study. Metal hexafluoroacetylacetonates show a diagnostic IL phosphorescence around 500 nm with a characteristic vibronic structure [11][12][13]. In the absence of a heavy atom effect this IL phosphorescence appears only at low temperatures (e.g.…”

“…This band is assigned to the lowestenergy spin-allowed pp à intraligand (IL) transition of the coordinated hfac ligand. Upon IL excitation Zn(hfac) 2 displays a phosphorescence which originates from the hfac pp à triplet [13]. This emission shows a distinct vibronic structure which consists of a maximum near 470 nm.…”

“…35 The band at 265 nm corresponds to the n-π* electronic transitions related to the π-conjugated bonds present in the thenoyl group of TTA. 19 The position of this band did not change after complexation.…”

“…7B and C) showed a single broad band with approximately the same onset energy at about 24 000 cm −1 . Wexler et al 19 have shown that the values of onset energy are similar for acac-derived β-diketonates. Small shifts occurred because the substituents (CF 3 , thenoyl and benzoyl rings) perturbed the p orbitals.…”
