Crystal Structures and Luminescence Properties of Platinum(II) Complexes Containing 3,3'-Biisoquinoline.
Three new platinum complexes containing 3,3'-biisoquinoline (i-biq), [Pt(CN)(2)(i-biq)] (1), [PtCl(2)(i-biq)] (2), and [Pt(i-biq)(2)](PF(6))(2) (3), have been synthesized as orange-red, yellow, and colorless crystals, respectively. Their crystal structures and luminescence properties are reported. Crystal data: for 1.0.5H(2)O, PtO(0.5)N(4)C(20)H(13), orthorhombic, Pbcm, a = 13.989(2) Å, b = 18.304(1) Å, c = 6.682(3) Å, V = 1710.9(6) Å(3), Z = 4, and final R = 0.039 (R(w) = 0.033) for 970 independent reflections; for 2.DMF.H(2)O, PtCl(2)O(2)N(3)C(21)H(21), triclinic, P&onemacr;, a = 11.047(1) Å, b = 12.397(3) Å, c = 8.000(2) Å, alpha = 106.56(1) degrees, beta = 100.15(1) degrees, gamma = 76.15(1) degrees, V = 1012.8(3) Å(3), Z = 2, and final R = 0.058 (R(w) = 0.077) for 4219 independent reflections; for 3.2DMF, PtP(2)F(12)O(2)N(6)C(42)H(38), triclinic, P&onemacr;, a = 10.795(2) Å, b = 13.511(2) Å, c = 8.281(1) Å, alpha = 105.22(1) degrees, beta = 112.17(1) degrees, gamma = 85.02(1) degrees, V = 1079.2(3) Å(3), Z = 1, and final R = 0.038 (R(w) = 0.042) for 3606 independent reflections. Square-planar complexes of 1 are stacked in the crystal to form a columnar structure with the Pt-Pt distance of 3.34 Å. The crystal emits strongly, even at room temperature, and the emission spectrum is similar to that for the [Pt(CN)(2)(bpy)] crystal (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine), which is due to a (3)dpi[dsigma(Pt) --> pi(i-biq)] transition. The single crystal emission spectrum at 77 K is, however, observed as a superposition of broad (3)dpi and sharp (3)pipi(i-biq) emissions. The crystal structure of 2 has a completely different stacking structure from that of 1. The stacking occurs on the i-biq ligands, and the Pt atoms are separated more than 6 Å. The complex exhibits only a structured emission component assigned to the (3)pipi(i-biq) transition in the crystal at 77 K, in agreement with the crystal structure with no Pt-Pt interaction. In the crystal of 3, the [Pt(i-biq)(2)](2+) complexes are stacked but offset, being in close contact between parts of adjacent i-biq ligands. There is no Pt-Pt interaction also in this case. Two i-biq ligands in the complex are distorted to adopt the bowed conformation due to the steric crowding of the alpha-hydrogens on opposite ligands. Nevertheless, 3 provides almost the same (3)pipi emission spectrum as 1 and 2 in dilute glassy solution at 77 K. The (3)pipi emission spectra observed in the crystals of these Pt(II) complexes are red-shifted compared with those in dilute glassy solution. The fact is attributable to the pi-pi intermolecular interactions between the ligands in the crystals. The factors controlling the crystal structures for these complexes are also discussed.
