Mono- and di-nuclear iridium(iii) complexes. Synthesis and photophysics

Abstract

This paper reports the synthesis and photophysical characterization of heteroleptic mono- and di-nuclear iridium(III) complexes. The complexes contain two ortho-metalating ligands, 2-phenylpyridine, with a bipyridine derivative as the third chelating unit. In the case of the dinuclear complexes the two iridium moieties are connected by a conjugated bridging ligand containing three or four phenyl units. All the complexes emit at room temperature and steady state and time resolved spectroscopy demonstrates that the lowest excited state is a metal-to-ligand charge transfer involving the bipyridine ligand.
