  • Title: Probing the electronic communication of the isocyanide bridge through the luminescence properties of the d9-d9 [ClPt(mu-dppm)2Pt(C triple bond N-PCP)]+ and A-Frame [ClPd(mu-dppm)2(mu-C=N-PCP)PdCl] complexes.

    Abstract:
    The homodinuclear d9-d9 ClM(mu-dppm)2MCl2 complexes, 1 (M ) Pt) and 2 (M ) Pd) react with the conjugated and luminescent PCP-NC ligand (3, PCP ) [2.2]paracyclophane) to provide the corresponding d9-d9 terminal[ClPt(mu-dppm)2Pt(CNsPCP)]Cl (4) and d8-d8 A-frame [ClPd(mu-dppm)2(mu-CdNsPCP)PdCl] (5) isocyanide complexes, respectively. These two bimetallic complexes were characterized by IR, 1H, and 31P{1H} NMR and bychemical analysis. IR data (nu(CN) bridging vs terminal) reveal a terminal isocyanide bonding mode for 4 (2147cm(-1)) and an A-frame structure for 5 (1616 cm(-1)). The optical and emission properties of the free isocyanide 3as well as those of the homodinuclear complexes 4 and 5 were studied by UV-visible and luminescence spectroscopy and by photophysical measurements. The unexpected presence of simultaneous intraligand pipi* fluorescence and phosphorescence attributable to the organic PCP-NC ligand, as well as luminescence from the inorganic M2-bonded Pt2(mu-dppm)2 center arising from a lower energy excited LMCT state (ligand-to-metal-charge-transfer) for4 at 77 K, indicates a weak conjugation between the two chromophores and an absence of efficient singlet andtriplet energy transfers. For 5, only the fluorescence and phosphorescence bands of the PCP-NC ligand are observed [since the A-frame XPd(mu-dppm)2(mu-L)PdX (L ) isocyanide, X ) halide) is not luminescent], stressing that the NtC bridge exhibits modest electronic communication properties.
