Twisted and Disconnected Chains: Flexible Linear Tetracuprous Arrays and a Decanuclear Cu I Cluster as Blue- and Green/Yellow-Light Emitters. Inorg Chem 2024; 63:12943-12957. [PMID: 38935842 PMCID: PMC11256752 DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.4c01646] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 05/31/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024]
Abstract
Defined arrays of transition metal ions embedded in tailored polydentate ligand scaffolds allow for a systematic design of their physical properties. Such molecular strings of closed-shell transition metal centers are particularly interesting for Group 11 metal ions in the oxidation state +1 if they undergo metallophilic d10···d10 contact interactions since these clusters are oftentimes efficient photoluminescence (PL) emitters. Copper is particularly attractive as a sustainable earth-abundant coinage metal source and because of the ability of several CuI complexes to serve as powerful thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters in molecular/organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). Our combined synthetic, crystallographic, photophysical, and computational study describes a straight tetracuprous array possessing a centrally disconnected CuI2···CuI2 chain and a continuous helically bent CuI4 complex. This molecular helix undergoes a facile rearrangement in diethyl ether solution, yielding an unprecedented nanosized CuI10 cluster (2.9 × 2.0 nm) upon crystallization. All three clusters show either bright blue phosphorescence, TADF, or green/yellow multiband phosphorescence with quantum yields between 6.5 and 67%, which is persistent under hydrostatic pressure up to 30 kbar. Temperature-dependent PL investigations in combination with time-dependent density-functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations and void space analyses of the crystal packings complement a comprehensive correlation between the molecular structures and photoluminescence properties.

Abstract
Polytopic ligands have become ubiquitous in coordination chemistry because they grant access to a variety of mono- and polynuclear complexes of transition metals as well as rare-earth and main-group elements. Nitrogen-based ditopic ligands, in which two monoanionic N,N-binding sites are framed within one molecule, are of particular importance and are therefore the primary focus of this review. In detail, bis(amidine)s, bis(guanidine)s, bis(β-diimine)s, bis(aminotroponimine)s, bis(pyrrolimine)s, and miscellaneous bis(N,N-chelating) ligands are reviewed. In addition to the general synthetic protocols, the application of these ligands is discussed along with their coordination chemistry, the multifarious binding modes, and the ability of these ligands to bridge two (or more) metal(loids).

Abstract
Hexadentate bis(amidines) form versatile networks of hydrogen bonds both in solid state and solution, as revealed by X-ray crystallography, IR, and NMR spectroscopy. Moreover, the corresponding bis(amidinates) produce blue and green emissions in THF solution. Tethered tetradentate bis(amidines) have emerged in coordination chemistry, enantioselective catalysis, as building blocks for polyfunctional heterocycles, and in photoluminescent materials. The next generation of flexible bis(amidine)/bis(amidinate) platforms with up to six N-donor sites has now been established.

Abstract
In order to investigate the difference between mono- and bimetallic systems in the catalytic hydroamination/cyclization reaction two mono- and bimetallic amidinate samarium catalysts, featuring comparable coordination environments, were synthesized. Both systems comprise two {N(SiMe3)2}- leaving groups to minimize the steric influence of the corresponding amidinate ligand. The bimetallic system is based on a bis(amidinate) 4,6-dibenzofuran derivative, while N,N'-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)benzamidinate was employed as ligand for the monometallic catalyst. For the hydroamination/cyclization reaction five different substrates were investigated. Additionally, kinetic studies were carried out to gain deeper understanding of the mechanism.

Abstract
The amine elimination reaction of equimolar amounts of ansa-bis(amidine) C6H4-1,2-{NC(tBu)NH(2,6-iPr2C6H3)}2 (L1H) and [(Me3Si)2N]2Yb(THF)2 affords a bis(amidinate) YbII complex [C6H4-1,2-{NC(tBu)N(2,6-iPr2C6H3)}2]Yb(THF) (1) in 68% yield. Complex 1 features a rather rare η1-amido:η6-arene coordination of both amidinate fragments to the YbII ion, resulting in the formation of a bent bis(arene) structure. Oxidation of 1 by I2 regardless of the molar ratio of reagents (2 : 1 or 1 : 1) leads to the formation of the YbIII species [{(2,6-iPr2C6H3)[double bond, length as m-dash]NC(tBu)NH}-C6H4-1,2-{NC(tBu)N(2,6-iPr2C6H3)}]YbI2(THF)2 (2) in which only one amidinate fragment is coordinated to the ytterbium ion in κ2-N,N'-chelating coordination mode, while the second NCN fragment is protonated in the course of the reaction and is not bound to the metal ion. The outcome of the salt metathesis reaction of LaCl3 with lithium amidinates [C6H4-1,2-{NC(tBu)N(2,6-R2C6H3)}2Li2] (R = Me, iPr) is proven to be strongly affected by the substituent 2,6-R2C6H3 on the amidinate nitrogens. When R = iPr, the salt metathesis reaction occurs smoothly and results in the formation of an ate-chloro-amidinate complex [C6H4-1,2-{NC(tBu)N(2,6-iPr2C6H3)}2]La(μ2-Cl)Li(THF)(μ2-Cl)2Li(THF)2 (3) in which the LaIII ion is coordinated by both amidinate fragments in a "classic"κ2-N,N'-chelating fashion. In the case of R = Me, the reaction requires prolonged heating for completion. Moreover, the salt metathesis reaction is accompanied by the fragmentation of the ligand and affords a trinuclear chloro-amidinate complex [C6H4-1,2-{NC(tBu)N(2,6-Me2C6H3)}2]La{[(tBu)C(N-2,6-Me2C6H3)2]La(THF)}2(μ2-Cl)4(μ3-Cl)2 (4) containing one dianionic ansa-bis(amidinate) and two monoanionic [(tBu)C(N-2,6-Me2C6H3)2] amidinate fragments. DFT calculations are conducted to determine the factor that governs this change in coordination mode and, in particular, the effect of the metal oxidation state.
