A series of platinum (II) complexes of benzannulated pincer-type diarylamido ligands were synthesized and characterized, showing strong metal-to-ligand charge-transfer absorptions and phosphorescence at room temperature. Computational modeling revealed efficient population of the lowest-lying triplet state in these complexes. The optical properties were minimally affected by substituents in the phenanthridinyl unit, but emission was significantly quenched by molecular distortions in the excited state.
The synthesis, structural characterization and photophysical properties of a series of platinum(ii) complexes of benzannulated pincer-type diarylamido ligands are described. The ligands all contain tricyclic phenanthridine (3,4-benzoquinoline) rings as donor arms, which were elaborated into (NN-perpendicular to O)-N-perpendicular to-coordinating beta-enaminoketonato chelates via partial condensation with acetylacetone. The proligands are easily deprotonated, and metallation can be achieved under mild conditions using simple Pt(ii) salts and Ag2O as a base. The resulting Pt(ii) complexes exhibit strong metal-to-ligand charge-transfer absorptions in the region of similar to 450-575 nm and are phosphorescent in solution at room temperature, emitting bright orange light (lambda(max) similar to 600 nm) with quantum yields of up to 16% and excited-state lifetimes on the order of similar to 20 mu s, representing significant improvements to these photophysical properties compared with many previously reported (NNO)-N-perpendicular to-O-perpendicular to or (NNN)-N-perpendicular to-N-perpendicular to-ligated systems. Computational modelling reveals that the lowest-lying triplet state is populated efficiently thanks to strong coupling between singlet and triplet excited state manifolds, as in cyclometallated compounds of Pt(ii). Substituents (CH3, tBu, or CF3) in the 2-position of the phenanthridinyl unit are found to have little influence on the optical properties, but the emission is severely quenched when a methyl substituent is introduced ortho to the coordinating nitrogen. Molecular distortions in the excited state are shown to be primarily responsible for the quenching in this complex.
