Abstract

We report a combined experimental and computational study of new rhenium tricarbonyl complexes based on the bidentate heterocyclic N-N ligands 2-(4-methylpyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]-X-azole (X = N-CH3, O, or S) and 2-(benzo[d]-X-azol-2-yl)-4-methylquinoline (X = N-CH3, O, or S). Two sets of complexes are reported. Chloro complexes, described by the general formula Re(CO)(3)[2-(4-methylpyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]-X-azole]Cl (X = N-CH3, 1; X = 0, 2; X = S, 3) and Re(CO)3[2-(benzo[c -X-azol-2-yl)-4-methylquinoline]Cl (X = N-CH3, 4; X = O, 5; X = S, 6) were synthesized heating at reflux Re(CO)(5)Cl with the appropriate N-N ligand in toluene. The corresponding pyridine set {Re(CO)(3)[2-(4-methylpyridin-2-yl)benzo-X-azole]py}PF6 (X = N-CH3, 7; X = O, 8; X = S, 9) and (Re(CO)(3)[2-(benzo[d]-X-azol-2-yl)-4-methylquinoline]py)PF6(X = N-CH3, 10; X = O, 11; X = S, 12) was synthesized by halide abstraction with silver nitrate of 1-6 followed by heating in pyridine and isolated as their hexafluorophosphate salts. All complexes have been fully characterized by IR, NMR, electrochemical techniques and luminescence. The crystal structures of I and 7 were obtained by X-ray diffraction. DFT and time-dependent (TD) DFT calculations were carried out for investigating the effect of the organic ligand on the optical properties and electronic structure of the reported complexes.
