[source] Cationic Iridium Complexes with Chiral Dithioether Ligands: Synthesis, Characterisation and Reactivity under Hydrogenation ConditionsEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 12 2005Leticia Flores-Santos Abstract A series of cationic IrI complexes containing chiral dithioether ligands have been prepared in order to study the influence of the sulfur substituents and the metallacycle size on the acetamidoacrylate hydrogenation reaction. In the case of complexes 6, 7 and 10, a mixture of diastereomers is observed in solution due to the sulfur inversion processes. In contrast, this fluxional behaviour is efficiently controlled by using bicyclic ligands which inhibit the S-inversion in complexes 8 and 9. The solid-state structure of complex 10b shows only one diastereomer with the sulfur substituents in a relative anti disposition and in an overall configuration of SCSCSSSS at the coordinated dithioether ligand. Iridium complexes containing seven- and six-membered metallacycles (6b,d, 7b,c, 10a,b) react with the substrate through S-ligand substitution, and the rate of this substitution is related to the position of the fluorine atom on the aromatic ring. On the contrary, complexes containing a bismetallacycle (8 and 9) are not displaced by the substrate. The catalytic hydrogenation activity of complexes 8 and 9 is analysed in terms of the high stability of the corresponding dihydride complexes (13 and 14). In both cases, only two of the four possible diastereomeric dihydride species are formed in solution. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Costa Abstract The archetype ionic transition-metal complexes (iTMCs) [Ir(ppy)2(bpy)][PF6] and [Ir(ppy)2(phen)][PF6], where Hppy,=,2-phenylpyridine, bpy,=,2,2,-bipyridine, and phen,=,1,10-phenanthroline, are used as the primary active components in light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs). Solution and solid-state photophysical properties are reported for both complexes and are interpreted with the help of density functional theory calculations. LEC devices based on these archetype complexes exhibit long turn-on times (70 and 160,h, respectively) and low external quantum efficiencies (,2%) when the complex is used as a pure film. The long turn-on times are attributed to the low mobility of the counterions. The performance of the devices dramatically improves when small amounts of ionic liquids (ILs) are added to the Ir-iTMC: the turn-on time improves drastically (from hours to minutes) and the device current and power efficiency increase by almost one order of magnitude. However, the improvement of the turn-on time is unfortunately accompanied by a decrease in the stability of the device from 700 h to a few hours. After a careful study of the Ir-iTMC:IL molar ratios, an optimum between turn-on time and stability is found at a ratio of 4:1. The performance of the optimized devices using these rather simple complexes is among the best reported to date. This holds great promise for devices that use specially-designed iTMCs and demonstrates the prospect for LECs as low-cost light sources. [source] Toward Highly Efficient Solid-State White Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells: Blue-Green to Red Emitting Cationic Iridium Complexes with Imidazole-Type Ancillary LigandsADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 18 2009Lei He Abstract Using imidazole-type ancillary ligands, a new class of cationic iridium complexes (1,6) is prepared, and photophysical and electrochemical studies and theoretical calculations are performed. Compared with the widely used bpy (2,2,-bipyridine)-type ancillary ligands, imidazole-type ancillary ligands can be prepared and modified with ease, and are capable of blueshifting the emission spectra of cationic iridium complexes. By tuning the conjugation length of the ancillary ligands, blue-green to red emitting cationic iridium complexes are obtained. Single-layer light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) based on cationic iridium complexes show blue-green to red electroluminescence. High efficiencies of 8.4, 18.6, and 13.2,cd A,1 are achieved for the blue-green-emitting, yellow-emitting, and orange-emitting devices, respectively. By doping the red-emitting complex into the blue-green LEC, white LECs are realized, which give warm-white light with Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.42, 0.44) and color-rendering indexes (CRI) of up to 81. The peak external quantum efficiency, current efficiency, and power efficiency of the white LECs reach 5.2%, 11.2,cd,A,1, and 10,lm,W,1, respectively, which are the highest for white LECs reported so far, and indicate the great potential for the use of these cationic iridium complexes in white LECs.
