Abstract:
A novel oxygen-bridged triarylamine polycyclic unit based tris-cyclometalated heteroleptic iridium(iii) complex (Ir-NO) has been designed and prepared. Similar iridium(iii) complexes (Ir-N and Ir-O) have also been prepared for comparison. The single crystal structure indicates that the oxygen-bridged triarylamine polycyclic unit of Ir-NO shows certain planarity, resulting in obvious rigidity and interesting π-π stacking. Additionally, Ir-NO shows a larger redshift emission (586 nm) and a longer emission lifetime (628 ns) than Ir-N (525 nm, 344 ns) and Ir-O (543 nm, 436 ns), and the phosphorescence color can be tuned from green to orange. Electrochemical experiments and DFT calculations reveal that Ir-NO exhibits a high HOMO energy level and intraligand charge transfer (3ILCT) excited state properties, which is in contrast to the low HOMO energy level and metal-to-ligand charge transfer (3MLCT) excited state properties in Ir-N and Ir-O. This result can be attributed to the strong electron-donating ability of the unit.

02:34Structural 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...

02:58Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
CFT focuses on...
