Consequences of the One-Electron Reduction and Photoexcitation of Unsymmetric Bis-imidazolium Salts

Coupling of uronium salts with in situ generated N-heterocyclic carbenes provides straightforward access to symmetrical [4](2+) and unsymmetrical bis-imidazolium salts [6](2+) and [9](2+) . As indicated by cyclic and square-wave voltammetry, [6](2+) and [9](2+) can be (irreversibly) reduced by one electron. The initially formed radicals [6](.+) and [9](.+) undergo further reactions, which were probed by EPR spectroscopy and density functional calculations. The final products of the two-electron reduction are the two carbenes. Upon irradiation with UV light both [6](2+) and [9](2+) emit at room temperature in solution but with dramatically different characteristics. The different fluorescenc…

Synthesis of copper(II) and gold(III) bis(NHC)-pincer complexes

Abstract CuII and AuIII chlorido complexes bearing the bis(NHC) carbazolide pincer ligand (bimca) were synthesized by transmetallation from the respective lithium complex [Li(bimca)] (NHC=N-heterocyclic carbene). In the case of copper, two different molecular structures were obtained depending on the copper source. With Cu(II) chloride the paramagnetic mononuclear [Cu(bimca)Cl] complex is formed and has been characterized by EPR spectroscopy and X-ray structure analysis, while copper(I) chloride leads under oxidation to a dinuclear structure in which two cationic [CuII(bimca)] moieties are bridged by one chlorido ligand. The positive charge is compensated by the [CuCl2]− counter ion, as pro…
