Assignment of the charge-transfer excited states of bis(N-heterocyclic) complexes of copper(I)

Four title complexes were investigated spectroscopically to ascertain the natures of their singlet and triplet excited-state manifolds. Absorption (room temperature, RT) and luminescence (77 K) spectra were measured for all the species. Augmented by additional measurements for the bis(2,9-dimethyl-4...

Description
Summary:Four title complexes were investigated spectroscopically to ascertain the natures of their singlet and triplet excited-state manifolds. Absorption (room temperature, RT) and luminescence (77 K) spectra were measured for all the species. Augmented by additional measurements for the bis(2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline)copper(I) ion (MCD (RT), excitation polarization measurements (100 K), and variations of both the emission spectra and the lifetimes as a function of temperature), group theoretical assignments of both the low-lying singlet and triplet charge-transfer states have been made. The model invokes a lowering of the symmetry from D{sub 2d} to D{sub 2} to account for the experimental observations.
