Emissive Metallomesogens Based on 2-Phenylpyridine Complexes of Iridium(III)

Abstract: Preparation of Ir(III) complexes using anisotropic 2,5-di(4-alkoxyphenyl)pyridine ligands leads to emissive, liquid-crystalline complexes containing bound Cl and dimethyl sulfoxide. Using analogous poly(alkoxy) ligands allows the preparation of bis(2-phenylpyridine)iridium(III) acac complexes, which are also mesomorphic. The observation of liquid crystallinity in octahedral complexes of this type is without precedent.

“…A four coordinate Pt II square planar metal complex has also been reported with two 2-phenylpyridine and two Cl -ligands (Yoshinari et al 2010). Complexes with substituted 2-phenylpyridine ligands have also been reported (Santoro et al, 2011). Here, we report the structure of a tetrahedrally coordinated Zn 2+ complex which crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I4 1 cd with one half molecule in the asymmetric unit.…”

“…5 Å. 23,26,27,32,34,40,47 (It is noteworthy that with [Ir(ppy) 2 µ-Cl] 2 -type complexes where the Ir-Ir distances are <4 Å only the less sterically congested rac ΔΔ/ɅɅ diastereomers have been reported to date [15][16][17][18]39,[48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55] ). For 13-16 the diastereomers were separated by fractional crystallization, silica column chromatography, or a combination of the two techniques.…”

“…[10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Transition-metal complexes based on, for example, iridium-(III), rhenium(I) and ruthenium(II) are attaining significant interest for application in imaging. [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] These phosphorescent metal complexes often posses better photophysical properties than organic fluorophores, such as long luminescence lifetimes. [17,27] The long lifetime of transition-metal complexes can be used to discriminate the signal from autofluorescence; that is, the lifetime is generally 100 ns-ms, whereas autofluorescence has a lifetime of 0.1-7 ns.…”
