Electronic Distribution in the Metal-to-Ligand Charge Transfer (MLCT) Excited States of [(4,4‘-(X)2bpy)(CO)3ReI(4,4‘-bpy)ReI(CO)3(4,4‘-(X)2bpy)]2+(X = H, CH3). Application of Time-Resolved Infrared and Resonance Raman Spectroscopies

Abstract: Ground- and excited-state resonance Raman and infrared spectra (354.7 nm excitation, in acetonitrile at 298 K) have been measured for [(4,4‘-(X)2bpy)(CO)3ReI(4,4‘-bpy)ReI(CO)3(4,4‘-(X)2bpy)]2+ (bpy is 2,2‘-bipyridine; 4,4‘-bpy is 4,4‘-bipyridine; X = H, CH3). The lowest lying excited states in these molecules are metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) in character. The spectra provide answers to two questions:  Is the acceptor ligand for the excited electron 4,4‘-bpy or 4,4‘-(X)2bpy? Are there localized (ReII−… Show more

“…The three ν(CO) bands in the ground state are shifted by only −6, −3, and −15 cm -1 , to 2034, 1935, and 1917 cm -1 . Ground-to-excited state shifts for MLCT excited states are typically much larger and in the opposite direction (for fac- [Re II (bpy •- )(CO) 3 (4-Etpy)] + , the shifts are +25, +80, and +35 cm -1 in CH 3 CN at 298 K) . The small shifts in the photochemical transient show that the electron density at the metal is relatively unperturbed compared to the ground state. …”

“…Time-Resolved Infrared. Time-resolved infrared measurements utilized a BioRad FTS 60A/896 step-scan interferometer with an external MCT detector as previously described. , A recent upgrade of this instrument utilizes fast data processing techniques. In this arrangement, the IR signal from the detector was amplified and processed by a BioRad Fast TRS board installed in a Pentium PC.…”

“…Nanosecond transient absorption spectra were obtained on previously described instrumentation, with the third harmonic of a Nd:YAG laser (355 nm, 10 ns fwhm, 5 mJ pulse -1 ) as the excitation source. Time-resolved infrared spectroscopy was carried out on a step-scan FTIR instrument that has been previously described. , Samples were dissolved in CH 3 CN and were purged with Ar. Excitation was effected using the third harmonic output of a Nd:YAG laser (355 nm).…”

“…An alternate method is the two-color experiment in which the pump pulse creates the transient species and resonance Raman scattering is produced by the probe pulsethe delay between the arrival of each of these pulses at the sample may be used to give temporal resolution . In the case of MLCT excited states the key spectral signatures that manifest in the resonance Raman spectra are often features of the ligand radical anion species. ,, For example Woodruff et al, in their seminal work on the resonance Raman excited-state spectrum of [Ru(bpy) 3 ] 2+ , were able to show the presence of bpy •- in the MLCT state by comparing the complexes excited-state spectrum with that of chemically generated bpy •- . The close correspondence between features in these two spectra provided strong evidence for [Ru (III) (bpy) 2 (bpy •- )] 2+ * formulation of the MLCT excited state.…”
