Ruthenium Janus-Head Complexes with a Triazolediylidene Ligand. Structural Features and Catalytic Applications
2007
The use of the ligand triazolediylidene (ditz), has afforded the preparation of two new complexes of Ru in which the ligand is bridging two metal fragments in a facially opposed (Janus-head) disposition. One of the complexes is dinuclear (2) and the other tetranuclear (3). The tetranuclear compound displays interesting structural features, as shown by the X-ray diffraction studies. The two complexes have been tested in the catalytic β-alkylation of secondary alcohols with primary alcohols, providing high activities when both aliphatic and aromatic alcohols are used.
Selective area vapor-phase epitaxy and structural properties of Hg1 − xCdxTe on sapphire
1997
Selective area (SA) Hg1 − xCdxTesapphire layers have been grown using the recently developed technique of the vapor-phase epitaxy (VPE) of Hg1 − xCdxTe layers on CdTesapphire heteroepitaxial substrates (HS), which we have called “VPE on HS technique” (Sochinskii et al., J. Crystal Growth 149 (1995) 35; 161 (1996) 195). First, planar CdTe (1 1 1) 5–7 μm thick layers were grown on sapphire (0 0 0 1) wafers by metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy (MOVPE) at 340°C for 1–2.5 h using dimethylcadmium and di-isopropyltellurium as precursors. Second, CdTe/sapphire mesas were formed using standard photolithography in the form of alternating parallel linear arrays consisting of 500 × 70 μm2 elements. Thir…
Anchor‐Functionalized Push‐Pull‐Substituted Bis(tridentate) Ruthenium(II) Polypyridine Chromophores: Photostability and Evaluation as Photosensitizers
2014
Stable push-pull substituted heteroleptic bis(tridentate) ruthenium(II) polypyridine complexes with COOH or 2,2′-bipyridine anchor groups have been prepared and characterized by 1H, 13C and 15N NMR 1D and 2D spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, high-resolution ESI mass spectrometry, electrochemistry, UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy, luminescence spectroscopy, and density functional calculations. The complexes feature a pronounced electronic directionality and high absorption wavelengths up to λmax = 544 nm extending to 720 nm as a result of favorable push-pull substitutions. A remarkable photostability in the presence of water and coordinating ions (I–) was discovered for…
Carbonyl Transition Metal Complexes of a Silaborate Ligand
1998
Reaction between three equivalents of the silaborate [NEt4][MeSiB10H12] (2) and one equivalent of [Ru3(CO)12] resulted in almost quantitative formation of the mononuclear transition metal complex [NEt4][Ru(CO)3(η5-MeSiB10H10)] (5), which was characterized by X-ray structure analysis. The trinuclear ruthenium complex [NEt4][Ru3(CO)8(η5-MeSiB10H10)] (7) was synthesized in high yield from the reaction of one equivalent of 2 and [Ru3(CO)12]. The cluster 7 reacts with two equivalents of PMe2Ph with substitution of two carbonyl groups to give the substitution product [NEt4][Ru3(CO)6(PMe2Ph)2(η5-MeSiB10H10)] (8).
Observation of electroluminescence at room temperature from a ruthenium(II) bis-terpyridine complex and its use for preparing light-emitting electroc…
2005
A terpyridine ruthenium (II) complex containing a substituted and an unsubstituted terpyridine ligand was synthesized, and its luminescence properties were studied in a solid-state single-layer light-emitting electrochemical cell. The obtained devices emitted light of a very deep red color (CIE, x = 0.717 y = 0.282) at low external applied bias. It is the first example of an electroluminescence device based on a bis-chelated ruthenium complex. Its ambient atmosphere decay is remarkably different from analogous devices using tris-chelated ruthenium complexes.
Synthesis and structural studies of TiRu polymetallic systems
2000
Abstract The reaction of the titanocene monophosphines 1 and 2 with the dimer [( p -cymene)RuCl 2 ] 2 give the heterobimetallic compounds ( p -cymene)[(η 5 -C 5 H 4 )(μ-η 5 :η 1 -C 5 H 4 PPh 2 )TiCl 2 ]RuCl 2 and ( p -cymene)[(η 5 -C 5 H 4 )(μ-η 5 :η 1 -C 5 H 4 CH 2 CH 2 PPh 2 )TiCl 2 ]RuCl 2 , respectively. Both structures have been confirmed by X-ray diffraction. By using same procedure, the synthesis of a trimetallic complex RuTiRu has been achieved.
Ruthenium‐assisted tellurium abstraction in bis(thiophen‐2‐yl) ditelluride
2023
The reaction of [RuCl2(CO)3]2 and Te2Tpn2 (Tpn = thiophen-2-yl, C4H3S) in the absence of light resulted in the formation of cct-[RuCl2(CO)2(TeTpn2)2] (1) [cis(Cl)-cis(CO)-trans(TeTpn2)] and TeTpn2 (2) together with the precipitation of tellurium. The complex 1 and the monotelluride 2 were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The decomposition of Te2Tpn2 to TeTpn2 has been monitored by 125Te NMR spectroscopy and seemed to be faster than the ligand substitution in [RuCl2(CO)3]2 by TeTpn2. A catalytic cycle is proposed for the decomposition of Te2Tpn2 to TeTpn2 based on the PBE0-D3/def2-TZVP calculations. peerReviewed
Fluorescent organometallic rhodium(I) and ruthenium(II) metallodrugs with 4-ethylthio-1,8-naphthalimide ligands: Antiproliferative effects, cellular …
2018
Fluorescent 4-ethylthio-1,8-naphthalimides containing rhodium(I) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) and ruthenium (II) NHC fragments were synthesised and evaluated for their antiproliferative effects, cellular uptake and DNA-binding activity. Both types of organometallics triggered ligand dependent efficient cytotoxic effects against tumor cells with the rhodium(I) NHC derivatives causing stronger effects than the ruthenium (II) NHC analogues. Antiproliferative effects could also be observed against several pathogenic Gram-positive bacterial strains, whereas the growth of Gram-negative bacteria was not substantially affected. Cellular uptake was confirmed by atomic absorption spectroscopy as well…
Luminescent Ionic Transition-Metal Complexes for Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells
2012
Higher efficiency in the end-use of energy requires substantial progress in lighting concepts. All the technologies under development are based on solid-state electroluminescent materials and belong to the general area of solid-state lighting (SSL). The two main technologies being developed in SSL are light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), but in recent years, light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) have emerged as an alternative option. The luminescent materials in LECs are either luminescent polymers together with ionic salts or ionic species, such as ionic transition-metal complexes (iTMCs). Cyclometalated complexes of Ir(III) are by far the most util…
Reversible Colorimetric Probes for Mercury Sensing
2005
The selectivity and sensitivity of two colorimetric sensors based on the ruthenium complexes N719 [bis(2,2'-bipyridyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate)ruthenium(II) bis(tetrabutylammonium) bis(thiocyanate)] and N749 [(2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine-4,4',4' '-tricarboxylate)ruthenium(II) tris(tetrabutylammonium) tris(isothiocyanate)] are described. It was found that mercury ions coordinate reversibly to the sulfur atom of the dyes' NCS groups. This interaction induces a color change in the dyes at submicromolar concentrations of mercury. Furthermore, the color change of these dyes is selective for mercury(II) when compared with other ions such as lead(II), cadmium(II), zinc(II), or iron(II). The detection limit…
