Polynuclear complexes of Ru(ll) based on the octadentate ligand 5,5′-bis(2-pyridyl)-3,3′-bi(1,2,4-triazole) (BPBT): Synthesis, spectroscopic and photophysical properties
The synthesis and characterization of the redox and excited state properties of three complexes (Ru(bpy)2(bpbtH2)2+, [Ru(bpy)2]2(bpbtH2)4t and [Ru(bpy)2]3(bpbt)4+) derived from the title ligand “bpbt” are reported. The coordination of the Ru(bpy)2 unit is believed to occur via N1 of the triazole and the pyridine nitrogen in the mononuclear and binuclear complexes. In the trinuclear complex the third unit is linked via N1 and N4′ of the bis(triazole) part of the ligand. Electrochemical studies of the mono-, bi- and trinuclear complexes show one, two and three one-electron oxidations(s) of the Ru-center(s). On the reduction side, up to -2.0 V only reduction of the spectator ligands bpy can be observed, each as two waves involving one, two and three electrons in the mono-, bi- and trinuclear complexes, respectively. FAB mass spectral data and fragmentation patterns of the binuclear complex are discussed. Mixed-valence forms of the bi- and trinuclear complexes can be prepared by chemical oxidation and these show strong absorption in the infra-red region corresponding to intervalence (IT) transitions. Analysis of the IT bands shows that the extent of electron delocalization is quite high in both cases, suggesting a fairly strong metal-metal interaction. The lowest excited state in all cases involves charge transfer from Ru(ll) to the bipyridine ligands, Ru(ll)->bpy. All three complexes show emission in solution at ambient temperature. The absorption and emission properties are sensitive to solution pH. Laser flash photolysis studies show a strong intensity dependence for the luminescence and transient absorptions and this is attributed to excited state annihilation processes, possibly via electron transfer.
