Metal‐to‐Ligand Charge Transfer Induced Valence Tautomeric Forms of Non‐Innocent 2,2′‐Azobis(benzothiazole) in Ruthenium Frameworks

Abstract: The impact of metal-to-ligand charge transfer towards the redox noninnocence of 2,2'-azobis(benzothiazole) (abbt) has been highlighted on coordination to {Ru II (acac) 2 } (acac = 2,4-pentanedionato). It led to the authentication of a series of mononuclear and dinuclear complexes incorporating variable oxidation states of abbt (abbt 0/ C À/2À ). Mononuclear 1 was identified as [Ru III (abbtC À )], a MLCT excited state of [Ru II (abbt)]. Dinuclear 2 was however recognized as two discrete redox isomers: (i) radi… Show more

“…Ferroelectrics and pyroelectrics are important materials, which are widely applied to memory and sensors, owing to a change in their spontaneous electric polarization. The current challenge is to synthesize new compounds that exhibit an electron transfer-based polarization switching compared to the more typical mechanism of ion displacement or molecular motion. Molecules that exhibit stimulated electron transfer , behavior (e.g., valence tautomeric VT) complexes are good candidates for such purposes. Once the compounds that exhibit electron transfer form a polar structure, polarization switching is realized.…”

“…In this regard, valence tautomeric (VT) molecules are ideal structural motifs exhibiting variable electronic configurations responsive to temperature, pressure, and external fields. 13–48 Furthermore, for crystalline materials with switchable macroscopic polarization, it is imperative that the target molecules crystallize in polar space groups so that their dipole moments will not be canceled. To date, there have been only a few non-ferroelectric molecular crystals exhibiting macroscopic polarization switching via electron transfer owing to the difficulties in crystal engineering to align molecules in polar space groups.…”
