Solid state conformational and theoretical study of complexes containing the (CxN)Pd moiety (CxN = 2-(phenylazo)phenyl-C,N and its derivatives)

2003

Palladium complexes having the 2-(phenylazo)phenyl-C,N ligand exhibit a planar chelating ring with NN and N–C distances longer and shorter respectively than those found in trans-azobenzene. The ligand is not planar upon complexation, the mean angle between the phenyl ring and the chelating one found in the Cambridge Structural Database being of 45.6°. We have quantified and characterised the kind of distortion from planar coordination around metallic centers. The method employed makes use of two improper torsion angles, tetrahedral distortion being most frequently found in phenylazophenyl palladium complexes. Crystal structures of three succinimidate complexes having the title moiety are re…

Extended liquid-crystalline oligofluorenes with photo- and electroluminescence

2010

In this paper we report the synthesis and characterization of a series of low-molecular weight light-emitting molecules based on short oligofluorene cores, from one to three 9,9-dioctylfluorene units, elongated at the 2- and 7-positions by means of promesogenic units. The effect of this structural modification on the mesomorphic properties, as well as on the optical and electrochemical properties, is studied. The possibility of using these molecules as emitters in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and polarized photoluminescent layers has been explored.

Self-assembly of Clicked Star-Shaped Triazines into Functional Nanostructures

2019

Two non‐amphiphilic star‐shaped 2,4,6‐tris(1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)‐1,3,5‐triazines showing different behavior in terms of self‐assembly and luminescent properties are described. They aggregate in the liquid phase to form low‐dimensional nanostructures with a variety of morphologies, such as spherical particles, one‐hole hollow spheres, toroids, twisted fibers or helical nanotubes, just by varying the conditions of a straightforward reprecipitation method. Aggregation has an opposite effect concerning the fluorescent properties of the proposed compounds, either causing the enhancement or the quenching of the emission after the self‐assembly. Quantum chemical calculations have been also performed…

Synthesis and characterization of cyclometallated palladium(II) complexes with 2-(diphenylphosphino)benzaldehyde

2013

New palladium(II) complexes containing 2-(diphenylphosphino)benzaldehyde a (Ph2P(o-C6H4CHO), displaying different coordination modes, have been synthesized in moderate to good yields (62–91%). The cyclometallated palladium(II) complexes [Pd(C^N)(Ph2 P(o-C6H4CHO)(Cl)] (1–4) in which a is P-monodentate have been prepared by reacting it with selected cyclometallated precursors containing bridging chlorides [Pd(C^N)(μ-Cl)]2 [C^N=2-phenylpyridine (Phpy), 7,8-benzoquinoline (Bzq), azobenzene (Phazo), and 2-phenyloxazoline (Phox), respectively].
