RESUMEN
Heteroleptic [Cu(P^P)(N^N)][PF6] complexes, where N^N is 5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (5,5'-Me2bpy), 4,5,6-trimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (4,5,6-Me3bpy), 6-(tert-butyl)-2,2'-bipyridine (6-tBubpy) and 2-ethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (2-Etphen) and P^P is either bis(2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl)ether (POP, PIN [oxydi(2,1-phenylene)]bis(diphenylphosphane)) or 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (xantphos, PIN (9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthene-4,5-diyl)bis(diphenylphosphane)) have been synthesized and their NMR spectroscopic, mass spectrometric, structural, electrochemical and photophysical properties were investigated. The single-crystal structures of [Cu(POP)(5,5'-Me2bpy)][PF6], [Cu(xantphos)(5,5'-Me2bpy)][PF6], [Cu(POP)(6-tBubpy)][PF6], [Cu(POP)(4,5,6-Me3bpy)][PF6]·1.5Et2O, [Cu(xantphos)(4,5,6-Me3bpy)][PF6]·2.33CH2Cl2, [Cu(POP)(2-Etphen)][PF6] and [Cu(xantphos)(2-Etphen)][PF6] are described. While alkyl substituents in general exhibit electron-donating properties, variation in the nature and substitution-position of the alkyl group in the N^N chelate leads to different effects in the photophysical properties of the [Cu(P^P)(N^N)][PF6] complexes. In the solid state, the complexes are yellow to green emitters with emission maxima between 518 and 602 nm, and photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) ranging from 1.1 to 58.8%. All complexes show thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). The complexes were employed in the active layer of light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs). The device performance properties are among the best reported for copper-based LECs, with maximum luminance values of up to 462 cd m-2 and device half-lifetimes of up to 98 hours.
RESUMEN
Using a density functional theory approach, we explore the emission properties of a family of bis-cyclometallated cationic iridium(iii) complexes of general formula [Ir(C^N)2(CN-tert-Bu)2]+ that have tert-butyl isocyanides as neutral auxiliary ligands. Taking the [Ir(ppy)2(CN-tert-Bu)2]+ complex (Hppy = 2-phenylpyridine) as a reference, the effect of replacing the pyridine ring in the cyclometallating ppy ligand by a five-membered azole ring has been examined. To this end, two series of complexes differing by the nature of the atom (either nitrogen or carbon) linking the azole to the phenyl ring of the cyclometallating ligand have been designed. Each series is composed of three molecules having an increasing number of nitrogen atoms (2 to 4) in the azole ring. The emission energies computed for the azole-containing [Ir(C^N)2(CN-tert-Bu)2]+ complexes show a generalized blue-shift compared to [Ir(ppy)2(CN-tert-Bu)2]+, in agreement with the experimental data available for two of the six complexes designed here. The electronic nature of the lowest-lying triplet (T1) is clearly established as a ligand-centred (3LC) state associated with the cyclometallating ligands, and cannot be described as a simple HOMO â LUMO promotion. Therefore, no clear trend based on the sole use of molecular orbital energies can be inferred to predict the emission properties. The significant oscillation in the emission quantum yield (ranging from 0.1% to 52%) experimentally reported is rationalized by the energy gap between the emitting T1 state and a non-radiative triplet state having metal-centred (3MC) d-d* nature. On the basis of such a model, two of the here proposed systems are expected to display significant emission quantum yields in the blue region of the visible spectra, which make them good candidates for electroluminescent applications.
RESUMEN
The synthesis and characterization of five [Cu(P^P)(N^N)][PF6] complexes in which P^P = 2,7-bis(tert-butyl)-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (tBu2xantphos) or the chiral 4,5-bis(mesitylphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (xantphosMes2) and N^N = 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy), 6-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine (6-Mebpy) or 6,6'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (6,6'-Me2bpy) are reported. Single crystal structures of four of the compounds confirm that the copper(i) centre is in a distorted tetrahedral environment. In [Cu(xantphosMes2)(6-Mebpy)][PF6], the 6-Mebpy unit is disordered over two equally populated orientations and this disorder parallels a combination of two dynamic processes which we propose for [Cu(xantphosMes2)(N^N)]+ cations in solution. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the energy difference between the two conformers observed in the solid-state structure of [Cu(xantphosMes2)(6-Mebpy)][PF6] differ in energy by only 0.28 kcal mol-1. Upon excitation into the MLCT region (λexc = 365 nm), the [Cu(P^P)(N^N)][PF6] compounds are yellow to orange emitters. Increasing the number of Me groups in the bpy unit shifts the emission to higher energies, and moves the Cu+/Cu2+ oxidation to higher potentials. Photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) of the compounds are low in solution, but in the solid state PLQYs of up to 59% (for [Cu(tBu2xantphos)(6,6'-Me2bpy)]+) are observed. Increased excited-state lifetimes at low temperature are consistent with the complexes exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). This is supported by the small energy difference calculated between the lowest-energy singlet and triplet excited states (0.17-0.25 eV). The compounds were tested in simple bilayer light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs). The optoelectronic performances of complexes containing xantphosMes2 were generally lower with respect to those with tBu2xantphos, which led to bright and efficient devices. The best performing LECs were obtained for the complex [Cu(tBu2xantphos)(6,6'-Me2bpy)][PF6] due to the increased steric hindrance at the N^N ligand, resulting in higher PLQY.

Heteroleptic [Cu(P^P)(N^N)][PF6] complexes, where N^N is a halo-substituted 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) and P^P is either bis(2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl)ether (POP) or 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (xantphos) have been synthesized and investigated. To stabilize the tetrahedral geometry of the copper(i) complexes, the steric demands of the bpy ligands have been increased by introducing 6- or 6,6'-halo-substituents in 6,6'-dichloro-2,2'-bipyridine (6,6'-Cl2bpy), 6-bromo-2,2'-bipyridine (6-Brbpy) and 6,6'-dibromo-2,2'-bipyridine (6,6'-Br2bpy). The solid-state structures of [Cu(POP)(6,6'-Cl2bpy)][PF6], [Cu(xantphos)(6,6'-Cl2bpy)][PF6]·CH2Cl2, [Cu(POP)(6-Brbpy)][PF6] and [Cu(xantphos)(6-Brbpy)][PF6]·0.7Et2O obtained from single crystal X-ray diffraction are described including the pressure dependence of the structure of [Cu(POP)(6-Brbpy)][PF6]. The copper(i) complexes with either POP or xantphos and 6,6'-Cl2bpy, 6-Brbpy and 6,6'-Br2bpy are orange-to-red emitters in solution and yellow-to-orange emitters in the solid state, and their electrochemical and photophysical properties have been evaluated with the help of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The emission properties are strongly influenced by the substitution pattern that largely affects the geometry of the emitting triplet state. [Cu(POP)(6,6'-Cl2bpy)][PF6] and [Cu(xantphos)(6,6'-Cl2bpy)][PF6] show photoluminescence quantum yields of 15 and 17%, respectively, in the solid state, and these compounds were tested as luminophores in light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs). The devices exhibit orange electroluminescence and very short turn-on times (<5 to 12 s). Maximum luminance values of 121 and 259 cd m-2 for [Cu(POP)(6,6'-Cl2bpy)][PF6] and [Cu(xantphos)(6,6'-Cl2bpy)][PF6], respectively, were achieved at an average current density of 100 A m-2. External quantum efficiencies of 1.2% were recorded for both complexes.
RESUMEN
Herein, [Cu(P^P)(N^N)][PF6 ] complexes (P^P=bis[2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]ether (POP) or 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (xantphos); N^N=CF3 -substituted 2,2'-bipyridines (6,6'-(CF3 )2 bpy, 6-CF3 bpy, 5,5'-(CF3 )2 bpy, 4,4'-(CF3 )2 bpy, 6,6'-Me2 -4,4'-(CF3 )2 bpy)) are reported. The effects of CF3 substitution on their structure as well as their electrochemical and photophysical properties are also presented. The HOMO-LUMO gap was tuned by the N^N ligand; the largest redshift in the metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) band was for [Cu(P^P){5,5'-(CF3 )2 bpy}][PF6 ]. In solution, the compounds are weak yellow to red emitters. The emission properties depend on the substitution pattern, but this cannot be explained by simple electronic arguments. Among powders, [Cu(xantphos){4,4'-(CF3 )2 bpy}][PF6 ] has the highest photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY; 50.3 %) with an emission lifetime of 12â µs. Compared to 298â K solution behavior, excited-state lifetimes became longer in frozen Me-THF (77â K; THF=tetrahydrofuran), thus indicating thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). Time-dependent (TD)-DFT calculations show that the energy gap between the lowest-energy singlet and triplet excited states (0.12-0.20â eV) permits TADF. Light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) with [Cu(POP)+(6-CF3 bpy)][PF6 ], [Cu(xantphos)(6-CF3 bpy)][PF6 ], or [Cu(xantphos){6,6'-Me2 -4,4'-(CF3 )2 bpy}][PF6 ] emit yellow electroluminescence. The LEC with [Cu(xantphos){6,6'-Me2 -4,4'-(CF3 )2 bpy}][PF6 ] had the fastest turn-on time (8â min), and the LEC with the longest lifetime (t1/2 =31â h) contained [Cu(xantphos)(6-CF3 bpy)][PF6 ]; these LECs reached maximum luminances of 131 and 109â cd m-2 , respectively.

RESUMEN
A series of bis-cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes of general formula [Ir(ppy)2(Nâ§N)][PF6] (ppy- = 2-phenylpyridinate; Nâ§N = 2-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine (1), 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole (2), 1-methyl-2-pyridin-2-yl-1H-benzimidazole (3), 2-(4'-thiazolyl)benzimidazole (4), 1-methyl-2-(4'-thiazolyl)benzimidazole (5)) is reported, and their use as electroluminescent materials in light-emitting electrochemical cell (LEC) devices is investigated. [2][PF6] and [3][PF6] are orange emitters with intense unstructured emission around 590 nm in acetonitrile solution. [1][PF6], [4][PF6], and [5][PF6] are green weak emitters with structured emission bands peaking around 500 nm. The different photophysical properties are due to the effect that the chemical structure of the ancillary ligand has on the nature of the emitting triplet state. Whereas the benzimidazole unit stabilizes the LUMO and gives rise to a 3MLCT/3LLCT emitting triplet in [2][PF6] and [3][PF6], the presence of the thiazolyl ring produces the opposite effect in [4][PF6] and [5][PF6] and the emitting state has a predominant 3LC character. Complexes with 3MLCT/3LLCT emitting triplets give rise to LEC devices with luminance values 1 order higher than those of complexes with 3LC emitting states. Protecting the imidazole N-H bond with a methyl group, as in complexes [3][PF6] and [5][PF6], shows that the emissive properties become more stable. [3][PF6] leads to outstanding LECs with simultaneously high luminance (904 cd m-2), efficiency (9.15 cd A-1), and stability (lifetime over 2500 h).
RESUMEN
The synthesis and characterization of a series of new cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes [Ir(ppy)2(Nâ§N)][PF6] in which Hppy = 2-phenylpyridine and Nâ§N is (pyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]thiazole (L1), 2-(4-(tert-butyl)pyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]thiazole (L2), 2-(6-phenylpyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]thiazole (L3), 2-(4-(tert-butyl)-6-phenylpyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]thiazole (L4), 2,6-bis(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)pyridine (L5), 2-(pyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]oxazole (L6), or 2,2'-dibenzo[d]thiazole (L7) are reported. The single crystal structures of [Ir(ppy)2(L1)][PF6]·1.5CH2Cl2, [Ir(ppy)2(L6)][PF6]·CH2Cl2, and [Ir(ppy)2(L7)][PF6] have been determined. The new complexes are efficient red emitters and have been used in the active layers in light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs). The effects of modifications of the 2-(pyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]thiazole ligand on the photoluminescence and LEC performance have been examined. Extremely stable red-emitting LECs are obtained, and when [Ir(ppy)2(L1)][PF6], [Ir(ppy)2(L2)][PF6], or [Ir(ppy)2(L3)][PF6] are used in the active layer, device lifetimes greater than 1000, 6000, and 4000 h, respectively, are observed.
RESUMEN
The synthesis of four cyclometallated [Ir(C^N)2(N^N)][PF6] compounds in which N^N is a substituted 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) ligand and the naphthyl-centred ligand 2,7-bis(2-(2-(4-(pyridin-2-yl)phenoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)naphthalene provides the two cyclometallating C^N units is reported. The iridium(iii) complexes have been characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopies, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis, and their electrochemical and photophysical properties are described. Comparisons are made with a model [Ir(ppy)2(N^N)][PF6] compound (Hppy = 2-phenylpyridine). The complexes containing the naphthyl-unit exhibit similar absorption spectra and excitation at 280 nm leads to an orange emission. The incorporation of the naphthalene unit does not lead to a desirable blue contribution to the emission. Density functional theory calculations were performed to investigate the geometries of the complexes in their ground and first triplet excited states, as well as the energies and compositions of the highest-occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO and LUMO) manifolds. Trends in the HOMO-LUMO gaps agree with those observed electrochemically. The energy difference between the LUMO and the lowest unoccupied MO located on the naphthyl unit (LUMO+7) is large enough to explain why there is no contribution from the naphthyl-centred triplet excited state to the phosphorescence emission. Singlet excited states were also investigated. Light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) using the [Ir(C^N)2(N^N)][PF6] and [Ir(ppy)2(N^N)][PF6] complexes in the emissive layer were made and evaluated. The presence of the naphthyl-bridge between the cyclometallating units does not significantly alter the device response.
RESUMEN
A series of regioisomeric cationic iridium complexes of the type [Ir(C^N)2(bpy)][PF6] (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) is reported. The complexes contain 2-phenylpyridine-based cyclometallating ligands with a methylsulfonyl group in either the 3-, 4- or 5-position of the phenyl ring. All the complexes have been fully characterized, including their crystal structures. In acetonitrile solution, all the compounds are green emitters with emission maxima between 493 and 517 nm. Whereas substitution meta to the Ir-C bond leads to vibrationally structured emission profiles and photoluminescence quantum yields of 74 and 77%, placing a sulfone substituent in a para position results in a broad, featureless emission band, an enhanced quantum yield of 92% and a shorter excited-state lifetime. These results suggest a larger ligand-centred ((3)LC) character of the emissive triplet state in the case of meta substitution and a more pronounced charge transfer (CT) character in the case of para substitution. Going from solution to the solid state (powder samples and thin films), the emission maxima are red-shifted for all the complexes, resulting in green-yellow emission. Data obtained from electrochemical measurements and density functional theory calculations parallel the photophysical trends. Light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) based on the complexes were fabricated and evaluated. A maximum efficiency of 4.5 lm W(-1) at a maximum luminance of 940 cd m(-2) was observed for the LEC with the complex incorporating the sulfone substituent in the 4-position when operated under pulsed current driving conditions.
RESUMEN
The role of π-conjugated molecular bridges in through-space and through-bond electron transfer is studied by comparing two porphyrin-fullerene donor-acceptor (D-A) dyads. One dyad, ZnP-Ph-C60 (ZnP = zinc porphyrin), incorporates a phenyl bridge between D and A and behaves very similarly to analogous dyads studied previously. The second dyad, ZnP-EDOTV-C60, introduces an additional 3,4-ethylenedioxythienylvinylene (EDOTV) unit into the conjugated bridge, which increases the distance between D and A, but, at the same time, provides increased electronic communication between them. Two essential outcomes that result from the introduction of the EDOTV unit in the bridge are as follows: 1)â faster charge recombination, which indicates enhanced electronic coupling between the charge-separated and ground electronic states; and 2)â the disappearance of the intramolecular exciplex, which mediates photoinduced charge separation in the ZnP-Ph-C60 dyad. The latter can be interpreted as a gradual decrease in electronic coupling between locally excited singlet states of D and A when introducing the EDOTV unit into the D-A bridge.
RESUMEN
A theoretical density functional theory study has been performed on different families of cationic cyclometallated Ir(III) complexes with the general formula [Ir(C^N)2(N^N)](+) and azole-based ligands. The goal was to investigate the effect that the number and position of the nitrogen atoms of the azole ring have on the electronic structure and emission wavelength of the complex. The increase in the number of nitrogen atoms changes the relative energy of the HOMO and LUMO levels and leads to a gradual shift in the emission wavelength that can be larger than 100 nm. The direction of the shift however depends on the ligand in which the azole ring is introduced. The emission shifts to bluer wavelengths when the azole forms part of the cyclometallating C^N ligands, whereas it shifts to the red when the 5-membered ring is incorporated into the ancillary N^N ligand. The position of the nitrogen atoms in the azole ring also plays an important role in determining the emission energy. Complexes with phenyl-azole C^N ligands bearing a nitrogen in the azole position to which the phenyl is linked show a markedly blue-shifted emission compared to complexes with the same number of nitrogen atoms in the azole ring and bearing a carbon atom in that position. Therefore, when comparing the emission properties of azole-based [Ir(C^N)2(N^N)](+) complexes, not only the number of nitrogen atoms of the azole but also their position in the ring and the ligand where the azole ring is incorporated should be taken into account.
RESUMEN
Ir(III) cationic complexes with cyclometalating tetrazolate ligands were prepared for the first time, following a two-step strategy based on (i) a silver-assisted cyclometalation reaction of a tetrazole derivative with IrCl3 affording a bis-cyclometalated solvato-complex P ([Ir(ptrz)2(CH3CN)2](+), Hptrz = 2-methyl-5-phenyl-2H-tetrazole); (ii) a substitution reaction with five neutral ancillary ligands to get [Ir(ptrz)2L](+), with L = 2,2'-bypiridine (1), 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine (2), 1,10-phenanthroline (3), and 2-(1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)pyridine (4), and [Ir(ptrz)2L2](+), with L = tert-butyl isocyanide (5). X-ray crystal structures of P, 2, and 3 were solved. Electrochemical and photophysical studies, along with density functional theory calculations, allowed a comprehensive rationalization of the electronic properties of 1-5. In acetonitrile at 298 K, complexes equipped with bipyridine or phenanthroline ancillary ligands (1-3) exhibit intense and structureless emission bands centered at around 540 nm, with metal-to-ligand and ligand-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT/LLCT) character; their photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) are in the range of 55-70%. By contrast, the luminescence band of 5 is weak, structured, and blue-shifted and is attributed to a ligand-centered (LC) triplet state of the tetrazolate cyclometalated ligand. The PLQY of 4 is extremely low (<0.1%) since its lowest level is a nonemissive triplet metal-centered ((3)MC) state. In rigid matrix at 77 K, all of the complexes exhibit intense luminescence. Ligands 1-3 are also strong emitters in solid matrices at room temperature (1% poly(methyl methacrylate) matrix and neat films), with PLQYs in the range of 27-70%. Good quality films of 2 could be obtained to make light-emitting electrochemical cells that emit bright green light and exhibit a maximum luminance of 310 cd m(-2). Tetrazolate cyclometalated ligands push the emission of Ir(III) complexes to the blue, when compared to pyrazolate or triazolate analogues. More generally, among the cationic Ir(III) complexes without fluorine substituents on the cyclometalated ligands, 1-3 exhibit the highest-energy MLCT/LLCT emission bands ever reported.
RESUMEN
The synthesis and characterization of four iridium(iii) complexes [Ir(thpy)2(N^N)][PF6] where Hthpy = 2-(2'-thienyl)pyridine and N^N are 6-phenyl-2,2'-bipyridine (1), 4,4'-di-(t)butyl-2,2'-bipyridine (2), 4,4'-di-(t)butyl-6-phenyl-2,2'-bipyridine (3) or 4,4'-dimethylthio-2,2'-bipyridine (4) are described. The single crystal structures of ligand 4 and the complexes containing the [Ir(thpy)2(1)](+) and [Ir(thpy)2(4)](+) cations have been determined. In [Ir(thpy)2(1)](+), the pendant phenyl ring engages in an intra-cation π-stacking interaction with one of the thienyl rings in the solid state, and undergoes hindered rotation on the NMR timescale in [Ir(thpy)2(1)](+) and [Ir(thpy)2(3)](+). The solution spectra of [Ir(thpy)2(1)][PF6] and [Ir(thpy)2(4)][PF6] show emission maxima around 640 nm and are significantly red-shifted compared with [Ir(thpy)2(2)][PF6] and [Ir(thpy)2(3)][PF6] which have structured emission bands with maxima around 550 and 590 nm. In thin films, the emission spectra of the four complexes are similar with emission peaks around 550 and 590 nm and a shoulder around 640 nm that are reminiscent of the features observed in solution. In solution, quantum yields are low, but in thin films, values range from 29% for [Ir(thpy)2(1)][PF6] to 51% for [Ir(thpy)2(4)][PF6]. Density functional theory calculations rationalize the structured emission observed for the four complexes in terms of the (3)LC nature predicted for the lowest-energy triplet states that mainly involve the cyclometallated [thpy](-) ligands. Support for this theoretical result comes from the observed features of the low temperature (in frozen MeCN) photoluminescence spectra of the complexes. Photoluminescence and electroluminescence spectra of the complexes in a light-emitting electrochemical cell (LEC) device configuration have been investigated. The electroluminescence spectra are similar for all [Ir(thpy)2(N^N)][PF6] complexes with emission maxima at ≈600 nm, but device performances are relatively poor probably due to the poor charge-transporting properties of the complexes.
RESUMEN
A new approach to obtain green-emitting iridium(III) complexes is described. The synthetic approach consists of introducing a methylsulfone electron-withdrawing substituent into a 4-phenylpyrazole cyclometalating ligand in order to stabilize the highest-occupied molecular orbital (HOMO). Six new complexes have been synthesized incorporating the conjugate base of 1-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-1H-pyrazole as the cyclometalating ligand. The complexes show green emission and very high photoluminescence quantum yields in both diluted and concentrated films. When used as the main active component in light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs), green electroluminance is observed. High efficiencies and luminances are obtained at low driving voltages. This approach for green emitters is an alternative to the widely used fluorine-based substituents in the cyclometalating ligands and opens new design possibilities for the synthesis of green emitters for LECs.
