Binuclear transition-metal complexes based on conjugated systems containing coordinating functions are potentially suitable for a wide range of applications, including light-emitting materials, sensors, light-harvesting systems, photocatalysts, etc., due to energy-transfer processes between chromophore centers. Herein we report on the synthesis, characterization, photophysical, and theoretical studies of relatively rare rhenium(I) and rhenium(I)-iridium(III) dyads prepared by using the nonsymmetrical polytopic ligands ( NN2 and NN3 ) with the strongly conjugated phenanthroline and imidazole-quinoline/pyridine coordinating fragments. Availability of these different diimine chelating functions and targeted synthetic procedures allowed one to obtain a series of mononuclear (Re and Ir) and binuclear (Re-Re and Re-Ir) metal complexes with various modes of {Re(CO) 3 Cl} and {Ir(NC) 2 } metal fragment coordination. The obtained compounds were characterized by 1D 1 H and 2D (COSY and NOESY) NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, and X-ray diffraction crystallography. The photophysical study of the complexes (absorption, excitation and emission spectra, quantum yields, and excited-state lifetimes) showed that their emission parameters display strong dependence on the manner of metal center coordination to the diimine bidentate functions. The mononuclear complexes with an unoccupied imidazole-quinoline/pyridine fragment [ Re(NN2) , Re(NN3) , and Ir(NC2) 2 (NN2) ] or those containing a coordinated {Ir(NC) 2 } fragment in this position [ Ir(NC2) 2 (NN1) and Re(NN2)Ir(NC1) 2 -Re(NN2)Ir(NC4) 2 ] exhibit moderate-to-intense phosphorescence (quantum yields vary from 3% to 56% in a degassed solution), whereas the complexes containing a {Re(CO) 3 Cl} moiety in the imidazole-quinoline/pyridine position [ Re 2 (NN2) , Re 2 (NN3) , and Ir(NC2) 2 (NN2)Re ] demonstrate a strong reduction in the phosphorescence efficiency with a quantum yield of ≪0.1%. Quenching of the phosphorescence in the latter types of emitters is discussed in terms of a strong decrease in the radiative rate constants for these complexes compared to their analogues mentioned above, while the nonradiative constants remain nearly unchanged. Theoretical density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD DFT) calculations, including evaluation of the radiative rate constants for the couple of structurally analogous complexes with and without a {Re(CO) 3 Cl} moiety coordinated to the imidazole-quinoline/pyridine chelating function, confirmed the observed trend in the variation of the emission intensity. |
