A synthetic study and characterization of the Pt(II) complexes with bipyridines back-born system
Abstract:
The reaction of platinum [Pt(5,5-dmbpy)]Cl2 (5,5-dmbpy = 5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine) with 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (4,4-dmbpy), [Pt(dbbpy)]Cl2 (dbbpy = 4,4'-dibutyl-2,2'-bipyridine), [Pt(dpbpy)]Cl2 (dpbpy = 4,4'-dipentyl-2,2'-bipyridine) with 5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (5,5-dmbpy) affords the following complexes: [(4,4-dmbpy)Pt(5,5-dmbpy)][PF6]2 (1) and [(dbbpy)Pt(5,5-dmbpy)][PF6]2 (2), [(dpbpy)Pt(5,5-dmbpy)][PF6]2 (3), [(5,5-dmbpy)Pt(5,5-dmbpy)][PF6]2 (4). This study was synthesized new platinum complex compounds utilizing ligand of 5,5'-Dimethyl-2,2'-dipyridyl System. To study the chemical composition was used 1H(13C)-NMR, UV-vis, Spectro photometer and Measurements about optical physics and chemical properties were measured to use spectrofluorometer. UV-vis absorption area was measured 310 nm to 383 nm and luminous wavelength was measured 390 nm to 419 nm.

Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can...

Stereoisomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...
