Solvatochromism and piezochromism of dicyano-, tricyano-, and tetracyano-diimine-iron(II) complexes

The solvatochromism of several dicyano-bis-diimine-iron(II) complexes in various binary aqueous solvent mixtures has been established, at 25 °C. A solvent sensitivity scale has been developed for these complexes. The solvatochromic properties of two tricyano-terdentate ligand iron(II) complexes in s...

Description
Summary:The solvatochromism of several dicyano-bis-diimine-iron(II) complexes in various binary aqueous solvent mixtures has been established, at 25 °C. A solvent sensitivity scale has been developed for these complexes. The solvatochromic properties of two tricyano-terdentate ligand iron(II) complexes in several solvents have also been determined, as have those of a series of tetracyano-diimine complexes in DMSO-water media. These results have been analysed and systematic but varied trends of solvation were demonstrated. Piezochromic parameters for two complexes have been obtained and are discussed in the context of a solvatochromism/piezochromism correlation.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
