Article Abstract

A novel class of cyclometalated platinum(II) complexes-previously considered to be inaccessible-was synthesized by an improved synthetic route utilizing ligands predicted by density functional theory calculations. Based on a concise quantum chemical screening three model ligands with varying steric demand were chosen and a series of six photoluminescent C^C* cyclometalated platinum(II) formamidinate complexes was obtained. The least sterically demanding ligand led to a bimetallic complex in two isomeric forms, which could be separated and confirmed by the corresponding solid-state structures. Sterically more hindered amidinate ligands gave the monometallic complexes supporting the theoretical predictions. The monometallic complexes show a significant hypsochromic shift of the emission wavelength, explained by the loss of the metal-metal interactions. Depending on the cyclometalating ligand quantum yields up to 87 % with short decay times were found for this new class of phosphorescent green-blue to pure blue platinum(II) emitters.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers synthesized amidinatotetrylenes containing either germanium (Ge) or tin (Sn) attached to quinol-8-yl fragments, which exhibit fluxional behavior in solution due to oscillation between bonding configurations.
  • The reactivity of the hmds group allows for further deprotonation and formation of homoleptic derivatives with additional bqfam.
  • Various transition metal complex reactions revealed distinct bonding behaviors: gold(I) complexes exhibited monodentate ligand coordination, while palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes formed κ-chloridotetrylene ligands, and ruthenium(0) and cobalt(0) complexes demonstrated bridging behavior with the amidinate N atoms.

The preparation of the [NBu4][Pt(C6F5)3L] complexes (L=triazene, formamidine, 2-aminopyridine,) have been carried out. These ligands contain a hydrogen atom, with more or less acidic character, in a position suitable for establishing an intramolecular hydrogen bonding interaction with the metal center. This interaction has been detected in solution for; its 1H NMR spectrum shows that the resonance assignable to this hydrogen has platinum satellites.
