Tuning photophysical properties with ancillary ligands in Ru(II) mono-diimine complexes.

ABSTRACT: The series of complexes [XRu(CO)(L-L)(L')₂][PF₆] (X = H, TFA, Cl; L-L = 2,2'-bipyridyl, 1,10-phenanthroline, 5-amino-1,10-phenanthroline and 4,4'-dicarboxylic-2,2'-bipyridyl; L'₂ = 2PPh₃, Ph₂ PC₂H₄PPh_2, Ph₂PCH═CHPPh₂) have been synthesized from the starting complex K[Ru(CO)₃(TFA)₃] (TFA = CF₃CO₂) by first reacting with the phosphine ligand, followed by reaction with the L-L and anion exchange with NaPF₆. In the case of L-L = phenanthroline and L'₂ = 2PPh₃, the neutral complex Ru(Ph₃P)(CO)(1,10-phenanthroline)( TFA)₂ is also obtained and its solid state structure is reported. Solid sta
