Two types of mononuclear cobalt complexes were synthesized with ancillary ligands containing isoquinoline groups and 3,5-di-tert-butylcatechol. The steric effect of quinoline derivatives around the cobalt center was compared with complexes containing multiple quinoline groups. The electronic states of the complexes were influenced by the substituents on the ancillary ligands from various perspectives such as spectroscopic, electrochemical, and magnetic properties.
Two types of mononuclear cobalt complexes with two ancillary ligands containing isoquinoline groups and 3, 5-di-tert-butylcatechol (3, 5-DBCat) were synthesized. The crystal structures and spectroscopic, electrochemical, and magnetic properties of these complexes and complexes with ancillary ligands containing multiple quinoline groups were compared to clarify the steric effect of quinoline derivatives around the cobalt center. In particular, a comparison of the crystal structures of the mononuclear cobalt complexes containing tris(2-quinolylmethyl) amine (tqa) and tris(3-isoquinolylmethyl)amine (isotqa) as ancillary ligands, each of which has three isoquino-line and three quinoline rings, showed that the isotqa complex was less congested than the tqa complex around the cobalt center. As a result, the tqa complex contains Co (II), whereas the isotqa complex has the stable Co (III) electronic state due to the stronger ligand field. In this report, the steric influence of ancillary ligand substituents on the electronic states of complexes is clarified from several perspectives such as spectroscopic, electrochemical and magnetic properties.
