文摘

The synthesis and characterization of luminescent gold(III) compounds, obtained by coordination of the metal center to different phosphines, is described. To avoid deactivation of luminescence by the presence of low-energy d–d ligand field states in the gold(III) center, the ligands bonded to the metallic center have been carefully chosen, among which we used bidentate phosphines with different numbers of phenylene or alkynyl-phenylene spacers and pentafluorophenyl groups. The reaction of [Au(C₆F₅)₃(tht)] (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) with the corresponding diphosphines gave the complexes [{Au(C₆F₅)₃}₂(1,4-PPh₂(C₆H₄)_nPPh₂)] (n = 1–3) and [{Au(C₆F₅)₃}₂(PPh₂C≡C(C₆H₄)_nC≡CPPh₂)] (n = 0–2). The study of their optical behavior reveals emission color variations from violet to yellow for the compounds containing the phosphines with one, two, and three phenylene spacers, respectively, and much more fine-tuning, from deep blue to brilliant blue for those intercalating alkynyl and phenylene spacers. Four of the new complexes were also characterized by X-ray diffraction crystallography, showing supramolecular structures formed through hydrogen bonding.
