INTRODUCTION (i) Scope and limitations Ru(bPY): + has certainly been one of the molecules most extensively studied and most widely used in research laboratories during the last ten years. A unique combination of chemical stability, redox properties, excited state reactivity, luminescence emission, and excited state lifetime has attracted the attention of many research workers first on this molecule and then on some several hundred of its derivatives. The great interest generated by the studying of this class of complexes has stimulated the growth of several branches of pure and applied chemistry. In particular, the Ru(I1) polypyridine complexes have played and are still playing a key role in the development of photochemistry, photophysics, photocatalysis, electrochemand istry, photoelectrochemistry, chemi- and electrochemi-luminescence, electron and energy transfer. The aims of this review are (i) to collect data concerning the absorption and emission spectra and the electrochemical, photochemical, and photophysical properties of the Ru(I1) polypyridine complexes in solution, and (ii) to discuss briefly some selected topics related to the excited state properties of these complexes. In an introductory section we have illustrated some fundamental concepts which are needed in order to understand the scope of the material reviewed. The literature coverage concerning the electrochemical, photochemical and photophysical data has been quite extensive and much effort has been made to provide tables where the available data can be easily found. 87 photochemical reaction products A + h3’ luminescence A+hS A + heat A and/or radiationless deactivation products quenching processes Fig. 1. Schematic representation of excited state deactivation processes. (ii) Photochemical and photophysical processes The first act of any photochemical and photophysical process is the absorption of a photon by a molecule. The excited state that is formed in this way is a high energy, unstable species which must undergo some type of deactivation. As shown in Fig. 1, excited state deactivation can occur via (i) disappearance of the original molecule (photochemical reaction), (ii) emission of light (luminescence), (iii) degradation of the excess energy into heat (radiationless deactivation), and (iv) some type of interaction with other species present in the solution (quenching process). As is well known from electronic spectroscopy [l-5], the probability of light absorption (and thus the intensity of the correspondent absorption band) is related to the characteristics of the states involved and particularly to their spin quantum number. Transitions from the ground state to excited states having the same spin value are allowed and give rise to intense bands, whereas transitions to excited states of different spin value are forbidden and can hardly be observed in the absorption spectra. In most molecules the ground state is a singlet and the lowest excited state is a triplet that cannot be directly populated by light absorption but can be obtained from the 88 A(S1) - A(T,) abs A&)-- L 1 Fig. 2. Schematic Jablonski diagram showing the various deactivation processes, k,, kit, kisc, k and k$ are the unimolecular rate constants for fluorescence, internal conversion, $4 TI intersystem crossing, phosphorescence, and Tl + So intersystem crossing, respectively . deactivation of upper excited states. For this reason, at least three states (e.g., ground state singlet and excited singlet and triplet) are involved in a photochemical process, as is shown in the Jablonski diagram of Fig. 2. Emission of light (luminescence) is called fluorescence or phosphorescence depending on whether the excited state has the same or different spin compared to the ground state. In the same way, radiationless deactivation is called internal conversion when it occurs between states of the same spin and intersystem crossing when it occurs between states of different spin. Fluorescence and internal conversion are spin-allowed steps, whereas phosphorescence and intersystem crossing are spin-forbidden steps. Each intramolecular decay step is characterized by its own rate constant (Fig. 2) and each excited state is characterized by its lifetime, given by i where ki is the first order rate constant for a generic unimolecular process that causes the disappearance of the excited state [3,4,6,7]. For each process one can define the quantum yield, which is the ratio between the number of moles of species (photons or molecules) produced and the number of 89 A fB energy C +0 cheinical transfer encounter complex *A+B= I Ebl k diff ..B _ k-ditf A or products A + B catalyzed reaction deactivation Fig. 3. Schematic representation of bimolecular processes that may take place following an encounter between an excited state and another chemical species. einsteins that have been absorbed. A particularly important quantity is the quantum yield of emission from the lowest spin-forbidden excited state (phosphorescence quantum yield, aP) which, making reference to Fig. 2, can be expressed by the following equation @‘p = rlisc kprTl 0) In this equation, rli, is the efficiency of population of the emitting excited state from the state populated by light absorption: = rli.92 kisc/t ki.5c + kf + kit) (3) and rr1 is the lifetime of the emitting excited state 7T, = l/(k, + ki’,,) (4 When the intramolecular deactivation steps are not too fast, i.e. when the lifetime of the excited state (eqn. 1) is sufficiently long, the excited molecule may have a chance to encounter a molecule of another solute, B (Fig. I). In such a case, some specific interaction may occur (Fig. 3) and the process taking place is called a bimolecular process [6-91. Simple kinetic arguments show that only those excited states that live longer than - 10m9 s may have a chance to be involved in encounters with other solute molecules. For transition metal complexes, only the lowest spin-forbidden excited state satisfies this requirement. The most important bimolecular processes are energy transfer [4,7,9,10] and electron transfer [4,7-9,111; the latter process may involve either the oxidation or the reduction of the excited state *A+B%A+*B energy transfer (5) 90 *A + B&A+ *A+B- k+A- + B- oxidative electron transfer (6) + B+ reductive electron transfer (7) The ability of an excited state to intervene in energy transfer processes is related to its zero-zero spectroscopic energy, E*-‘. For the electron transfer processes, the relevant thermodynamic parameters are the oxidation (eqn. 6) and *A/Acouples. and reduction (eqn. 7) potentials of the *A/A+ Because of its higher energy content, an excited state is both a stronger reductant and a stronger oxidant than the corresponding ground state. To a first approximation, the redox potentials for the excited state couples may be calculated from the potentials of the ground state couples and the zero-zero excitation energy Eoeo: E(A+,‘*A) = E(A+,‘A) -E”-’ E(*A/A-) = E(A,‘A-) + E"-' (8) (9) Figure 4 shows schematically some quantities that characterize an excited state from the point of view of energy and electron transfer processes_ Kinetic parameters (i.e., intrinsic barrier and electronic transmission coefficient) can also play an important role in energy and electron transfer processes, as is discussed in detail in the next Section. u+ A Fig. 4. Schematic diagram showing the molecular quantities relevant for energy and electron transfer processes. 91 (iii) Kinetics of energy and electron transfer processes Ru(II) polypyridine complexes are extensively used in energy and electron transfer processes [8,9,11-161. An important aim of these studies is the elucidation of the factors that govern the reaction rates. Outer-sphere electron transfer (regardless of the ground or excited state nature of the reactants) [8,9,17-201 and exchange energy transfer [9,10] are closely related processes that can be dealt with by the same formalism 1211. Using an excited state electron transfer reaction as an example [18] *D + A+D+ + A- 00) the reaction rate can be discussed on the basis of the mechanism shown in the scheme of Fig. 5, where k,, k_,, ki, and k:, are rate constants for formation and dissociation of the outer-sphere encounter complex, k, and k_, are unimolecular rate constants for the electron transfer step involving the excited state, and k,(g) and k_,(g) are the corresponding rate constants for the ground state electron transfer step. A simple steady state treatment shows that the experimental rate constant of eqn. (10) can be expressed as a function of the rate constants of the various steps k exp = kc3 k-d + k-, I-rk k-, k,k, e where k, may often be replaced by k’, (for more details, see ref. 18). Using a classical approach, k_ Jk, is given by exp( AG/RT), where AG is the free energy change of the electron transfer step. The key step of the process is, of course, the electron transfer step and the essence of the problem is the fact that the equilibrium nuclear configuration of a species changes when it gains or loses an electron (or electronic energy) [19]. For transition metal complexes in fluid solution this configuration change may involve changes in metal-ligand bond and intraligand bond lengths and angles and, at least in k:d k’d D +A =D...< k-d D+ + A- _ kp products A Fig. 5. Detailed mechanism for an electron transfer process involving an excited state reactant (see text). 92 1 nuclear configuration Fig. 6. Representation of an outer-sphere electron transfer process using energy curves: curves i and f correspond to the precursor (D * - * - A) and successor (D+ - - - A- ) complexes of Fig. 5. For more details, see text. the case of electron transfer, changes in the vibrations and rotations of solvent dipoles. Since electronic motions are much faster than nuclear motions (Franck-Condon principle), in a classical approach an adjustment of the nuclear configuration prior to electron (or energy) transfer is required. This gives rise to an activation barrier, AG # , as shown in Fig. 6. Once a suitable nuclear configuration has been reached, whether or not electron (or energy) transfer occurs is a matter of electronic factors (adiabaticity problem ~19,221). Using a classical approach, the rate constant of electron transfer can be given by k, = tcvn exp( - AG #,/RT) (12) where K is the electronic transmission coefficient, vn is an effective frequency for nuclear motion, and AG # is the free activation energy, which may be expressed by a free energy relationship like the classical Marcus quadratic equation [19,23] AG+ = AG+(O){l + [AG/4AG+(O)] )’ (13) or empirical equations like [l&24,25] AG+=AG+ AG + (0) In 2 AG In 2 AG + (0) il (14) where AG # (0) is the so-called intrinsic nuclear barrier (Fig. 6). For a homogeneous series of reactions [l&26,27], such as those between the same reductant *D and a series of structurally related oxidants A,, A,, A,. _ _ (or vice versa) that have variable redox potential but the same size, shape, electronic structure and electric charge, one can assume that throughout the series the reaction parameters k,, k_ d, k L d in eqn. (ll), K and V~ in eqn. 93 0 AG vs. AG plots for a homogeneous series of outer-sphere electron Fig. 7. Expected log k, transfer reactions, according to eqns. (ll), (12), and (14). (a) Effect of the intrinsic barrier AG # (0); (b) effect of the transmission coefficient K. (12) and AG ‘(0) in eqn. (14) are constant. Under these assumptions, k,, (eqn. 11) is only a function of AG and a log k,, vs.AG plot will exhibit the following features (Fig. 7): (i) an Arrhenius type linear region for sufficiently endergonic reactions; (ii) a more or less wide intermediate region (depending on AG + (0)) in which log k,, increases in a complex but monotonic way as AG decreases, and (iii) a plateau region for sufficiently exergonic reactions when the free energy correlation given by eqn. (14) is used (use of eqn.. 13 would predict a decrease of the reaction rate at high exergonicity usually not observed for reactions in fluid solution at room temperature [7,18,28-331). As shown in Fig. 7, the values of the intrinsic barrier AG+(O) strongly influence the values of the rate constant in the intermediate non-linear region, while a lower than diffusion controlled value of the plateau at high exergonicity is related to a low value of the transmission coefficient K (non-adiabatic behavior). These free energy relationships are extensively used to establish whether a series of quenching reactions take place via energy transfer, reductive electron transfer, or oxidative electron transfer (Section B (vi)). Furthermore, when the values of the other parameters are known, a two-parameter fit of the log k,,, vs. AG plot to eqns. (111, (12), and (14) may allow, in principle, estimation of the values of AG # (0) and K of the homogeneous series of reactions. When either AG # (0) or K is known from other experimental results (or can be estimated from reasonable assumptions), a more reliable one-parameter fit can be used to estimate the unknown quantity. The model can also be further elaborated [l&22,27,34-37] in an attempt to obtain parameters related to the individual reactants. 94 (iv) Light us a reactant and right us a product The class of chemical reactions that plays the most important role in the connection between chemistry and light is that of electron transfer reactions. Ru(I1) polypyridine complexes have given a determinant contribution to the recent development of this class of reactions. When light is used as a reactant (photochemical reaction, eqns. (15) and t 1% A+hv+*A (15) (16) *A+B-,A++B- there are two possible energetic situations for electron transfer reactions, schematically represented in Fig. 8. The scheme of Fig. S(a) corresponds to an exergonic dark reaction which is slow for kinetic reasons (high activation energy). Upon light excitation, the reductant A is transformed into the much stronger reductant *A (vide supra), so that the reaction between *A and B is much more exergonic that the reaction between A and B. Since the activation energy generally decreases with increasing exergonicity, the reaction involving the excited state will be much faster than that involving the ground state. In a system of this kind light is simply used to overcome a kinetic barrier and plays the role of a catalyst. The scheme shown in Fig. 8(b) corresponds to the case of a A + B -+ A+ + B - dark reaction that cannot take place because of thermodynamic reasons. Light excitation causes the formation of *A which is a reductant much stronger than A, so that the reaction *A + B -+ A+ + B- is thermodynamically allowed. Light a Fig. 8. Schematic representation of the two possible energetic situations for electron transfer reactions involving an excited state reactant. For details see text. 95 bt+ B*A+6 A+B Fig. 9. Schematic representation of the energetic situation needed for generation of an excited state from an electron transfer reaction. can thus drive A + B to A+ + B- via *A + B, and in such a process a fraction of the light energy is converted into chemical energy of the products. The converted energy is released when A+ and B- undergo the back electron transfer reaction leading to A + B. In electron transfer reactions, light can also be involved as a product (chemiluminescent reactions): A++B- +*A+B *A-,A+hv (171 (18) This process can be schematically represented as in Fig. 9, which differs from those shown in Fig. 8 because the energy content of A+ + B - is not only higher than that of A + B, but also than that of *A + B. In such a case the reaction from A + B to A+ + B- can be driven neither thermally nor photochemically. When A+ and B- can be prepared in some other way (e.g., electrochemically) and are mixed together, their electron transfer reaction can lead either to A + B, with complete dissipation of the excess free energy into heat, or to ‘A + B, with dissipation of a smaller amount of energy. In the latter case, *A can undergo radiative deactivation (luminescence) so that in this reaction a fraction of the available chemical energy is converted into light energy. From this discussion it is clear that a chemiluminescent process can be considered as the reverse of a photochemical process photochemistry A+B+hv**A+BzSA++Bchemiluminescence 09) and that the equilibrium represented by eqn. (19) is displaced from left to right or from right to left depending on whether the energetic situation is that depicted in Fig. 8 or in Fig. 9. The availability of a class of compounds (such as those of the Ru(I1) polypyridine family) which cover a wide range of redox potentials and excited state energies (Tables 1 and 3) is of course fundamental to the investigation of these processes. 96 (v) Light absorption and light emission sensitizers Ru(I1) polypyridine compounds are extensively used not only as primary reactants in electron transfer processes involving light (Section A (iv)), but also as mediators of potential photochemical and chemiluminescent processes [38,39]. There are “potential” photochemical reactions that do not occur because the reactants are not able to absorb light and/or because their excited states are too short lived. Consider, for example, a chemical reaction A+B++A++B- (20) that cannot occur in the dark because it is endoergonic by, say, 1 eV. In principle, excitation with visible light would made the process thermodynamically allowed (Fig. 8(b)). However, if neither A nor B are able to absorb the exciting light, the reaction cannot occur A+B+hv-+A++B- (21) This “potential” photochemical reaction can be induced (or sensitized) by a species which possesses specific redox, spectroscopic, and excited state properties. Such species can be called light absorption sensitizers (LAS) [38] and must perform as shown schematically in Fig. 10: (i) it must absorb light so as to give an excited state; (ii) this excited state must be able to oxidize (or reduce) one of the reactants of eqn. (21); (iii) the reduced (or oxidized) form of the photosensitizer must be able to reduce (or oxidize) the other reactant in order to complete the redox process indicated by eqn, (21) and to Fig. 10. Schematic representation of a photosensitized electron transfer reaction. LAS = light absorption sensitizer. 97 regenerate the LAS. Looking at the schemes of Figs. 4 and 10, it is possible to make the following list of requirements for an ideal LAS [40,41]: (1) reversible redox behavior; (2) suitable ground and excited state potentials; (3) stability towards thermal and photochemical decomposition; (4) intense absorption in a suitable spectral region; (5) small energy gap between relevant excited states; (6) high efficiency of population of the reactive excited state; (7) suitable lifetime of the reactive excited state; (8) high energy content of the reactive excited state; (9) good kinetic factors for outer sphere electron transfer reactions. LAS can carry on a variety of useful processes [38]. Their development will hopefully make possible the conversion of simple molecules like H,O and CO, (which do not absorb solar energy) into fuels (HZ, CH,) by means of non-biological photosynthetic processes [42-451. “ Potential” chemiluminescent reactions are reactions sufficiently exergonic to generate light but producing only heat because no excited state (or, better, no emitting excited state) is formed A++B-++A+B+hv (22) In the same way as “potential” photochemical reactions can be induced by LAS, “potential” chemiluminescent reactions can be induced by suitable species that can be called light emission sensitizers (LES) [38]. As shown in Fig. 11, a LES must perform in the following way: (i) it must be oxidized (or reduced) by one of the reactants of eqn. (22); (ii) its oxidized (or reduced) form so obtained must then oxidize (or reduce) the other reactant to yield an excited state, *LES; (iii) such an excited state must undergo radiative deactivation (luminescence), regenerating the ground state LES. In this way, I lLEs lLES LES -T h3 A++ B--A. B+ hJ h3 Fig. 11. Schematic representation of a sensitized chemiluminescent electron transfer reaction. LES = light emission sensitizer. 98 part of the exergonicity of the electron transfer reaction between A+ and Bis channelled to light generation. LES are less known than LAS, but they are presently the object of much research because they may have several applications (e.g., in the field of display devices [46, 471). From the schemes shown in Figs. 4 and 11, the requirements for an ideal LES must be as follows [40]: (1) reversible redox behavior; (2) suitable ground and excited state potentials; (3) stability towards thermal and photochemical decomposition reactions; (4) suitable excited state energy; (5) strong luminescence emission (high efficiency for the radiative deactivation of the excited state); (6) good kinetic factors for outer sphere electron transfer reactions_ As can be seen from the above lists, the stability and redox requirements are the same for LAS and LES. From a spectroscopic point of view, the requirements are somewhat different (e.g., a LES does not need to have intense absorption bands and a LAS does not need to exhibit luminescence), but slow radiationless deactivation of the excited state is a fundamental requirement in both cases because a LAS must have a long excited state lifetime and a LES must have a high emission efficiency. Thus, it is not surprising that a compound which can play a role of LAS can also play a role of LES. Ru(I1) polypyridine complexes, because of their redox and excited state properties, satisfy most of the requirements needed for LAS and LES. (vi) Structure, bonding, and excited states of Ru(I1) polypyridine complexes Ru*” is a d6 system and the polypyridine ligands are usually colorless molecules possessing a-donor orbitals localized on the nitrogen atoms and VT donor and V* acceptor orbitals more or less delocalized on aromatic rings. Following a single-configuration one-electron description of the excited state in octahedral symmetry (Fig. 12(a)), promotion of an electron from a 7rTM metal orbital to the 7~: ligand orbitals gives rise to metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) excited states, whereas promotion of an electron from 7rM to 0c orbitals gives rise to metal centered (MC) excited states. Ligand centered (LC) excited states can be obtained by promoting an electron from 7rL to 77;. All these excited states may have singlet or triplet multiplicity, although spin-orbit coupling causes singlet-triplet mixing in the MC and MLCT excited states [48-511. Actually Ru(bpy)$‘, as well as the other Ru(LL);+ complexes (LL = bidentate polypyridine ligand), exhibits a D3 symmetry (Fig. 13) [52]. Following Orgel’s notation [53], the m * orbitals may be symmetrical (x) or antisymmetrical (JI) with respect to rotation around the C, axis retained by each Ru(bpy) unit. A more detailed picture of the highest occupied and lowest empty orbital is shown in Fig. 12(b) [14,15,54]. The highest filled molecular orbitals are TMal( d) and vMe( d), which are 99 1 filled orbitals Fig. 12. (a). Simplified molecular orbital diagram for Ru(LL)z+ complexes in octahedral symmetry showing the three types of electronic transitions occurring at low energies; (b) detailed representation of the MLCT transition in D3 symmetry. predominantly localized on the metal; the lowest empty molecular orbitals are rEa2( +) and rrrEe(+), which are predominantly localized on the ligands. The ground state of the complex is a singlet, derived from the TMe ( d )"TT~ q( d) *electronic configuration. The high energy excited states of transition metal complexes undergo fast radiationless deactivation [55]. Thus, only the lowest excited state and the upper states that can be populated on the basis of the Boltzmann equi- Tig. 13. Structure of Ru(bpy)g+ [52]. loo w ‘M-L ‘M-L Fig. 14. Schematic representation of two limiting cases for the relative positions of ‘MC 3LC (or 3MLCT) excited states. and librium law may play a role in the luminescence emission and in bimolecular processes. The MC excited states of d6 octahedral complexes are strongly displaced with respect to the ground state geometry along metal-ligand vibration coordinates [2,56]. When the lowest excited state is MC, it undergoes fast radiationless deactivation to the ground state and/or ligand dissociation reactions (Fig. 14(b)). As a consequence, at room temperature the excited state lifetime is very short, no luminescence emission can be observed [57] and no bimolecular reaction can take place. LC and MLCT excited states are usually not strongly displaced compared to the ground state geometry. Thus, when the lowest excited state is LC or MLCT (Fig. 14(a)) it does not undergo fast radiationless decay to the ground state and luminescence can usually be observed, except at high temperature when thermally activated radiationless deactivation via upper lying MC excited states can occur. The radiative deactivation rate constant is somewhat higher for 3MLCT than for 3LC because of the larger spin-orbit coupling effect. For this reason, the 3LC excited states are longer lived at low temperature in rigid matrix and the 3MLCT excited states are more likely to exhibit luminescence at room temperature in fluid solution where the lifetime of 3LC and 3MLCT is shortened by activated surface crossing to short lived MC excited states or by bimolecular quenching processes. From this discussion it is clear that the luminescent properties of a complex as well as its ability to play the role of excited state reactant, (eqn. 16), excited state product (eqn. (17)), LAS (Fig. lo), or LES (Fig. 11) are 101 related to the energy ordering of its low energy excited states and, particularly, to the orbital nature of its lowest excited state. The energy positions of the MC, MLCT, and LC excited states depend on the ligand field strength, the redox properties of metal and ligands, and intrinsic properties of the ligands, respectively [2]. Thus, in a series of complexes of the same metal ion the energy ordering of the various excited states, and particularly the orbital nature of the lowest excited state, can be controlled by a judicious choice of the ligands [40,48,58]. In this way, it is possible to design complexes having, at least to a certain degree, the desired properties (Section C). For most Ru(X1) polypyridine complexes, the lowest excited state is a 3MLCT which undergoes relatively slow radiationless transitions and thus exhibits long lifetime and intense luminescence emission. (vii) Redox properties of Ru(ll) polypyridine compiexes in the ground state As mentioned above, the complexes of the Ru(II) polypyridine family are particularly interesting as excited state reactants or products in electron transfer processes and as mediators (LAS or LES) of electron transfer reactions involving light. A fundamental requirement for playing these roles is the stability of the oxidized and/or reduced forms, i.e. the reversibility of the oxidation and/or reduction processes in the ground state. A wealth of information is available on the electrochemical behavior of ruthenium-polypyridine complexes. The most widely used electrochemical method has been cyclic voltammetry (CV) in non-aqueous aprotic solvents. Following the pioneering work on Ru(bpy) z + [59], many measurements on similar complexes were performed (Table 3). The feature of CVs of many complexes of the Ru(II)-polypyridine family is the possibility of localizing with a high degree of certainty the donor or the acceptor orbital of the one electron transfer reaction_ Oxidation of Ru(II) polypyridine complexes usually involves a metal centered (parent 7rTM( t,,) in octahedral symmetry) orbital, with formation of genuine Ru(II1) complexes (low spin 4d5 configuration) which are inert to ligand substitution [59] [Ru’+(LL)~]~+~ [Ru3+(LL),13++ e- (23) Normally, only a one-electron oxidation is obtained in the potential range available. It is not always feasible to compare potentials reported in the literature on an absolute scale. It can be stated, however, that the Ru(II)/ Ru(III) potentials in the complexes where the ligands are exclusively true polypyridine molecules, fall in a rather narrow range around + 1.25 V with respect to NHE. Substitution of one or more polypyridine ligands by another base can drastically change these potentials. The substitution of one 102 bpy in Ru(bpy) 5’ with two Cl- ions to give Ru(bpy) &12 lowers the potential to about +0.35 V, whereas the strong ?r*-acceptor CO causes an increase above + 1.9 V in Ru(bpy),(CO)z+ (Table 3). Reduction of Ru(II) polypyridine complexes may in principle involve either a metal-centered or a ligand-centered orbital, depending on the relative energy ordering. When the ligand field is sufficiently strong and/or the ligands can be easily reduced, reduction takes place on a ligand 7~c orbital. This is the commonly observed behavior of Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes [60,61,65] (Table 3). The reduced form, keeping its low-spin 4d6 configuration, is usually quite inert and the reduction process is reversible: As discussed in Sections A (viii) and D (iii), the added electron appears to be localized on a single ligand. Several reduction steps can often be observed in the potential range accessible. This range has been considerably enlarged through the measurement of CV at low temperature [62,63]. Up to six electrons can be pumped into Ru(bpy) i’ in this way [62], yielding a highly reduced complex which can be formulated as [R~~+(bpy~-)~]~-. The localization of the acceptor orbitals in the reduction processes is often particularly clear in mixed hgand complexes involving polypyridine ligands with different energies of the 7 * orbitals. In such cases, the first and subsequent reduction steps can be attributed to the various Iigands in the complex. When the ligand field is weak and/or the ligands cannot be easily reduced, the lowest empty orbital in the reduction process could be metal centered (parent ~r&(eg) in octahedral symmetry). In such a case, reduction would lead to an unstable low spin d7 system, which should give rise to a fast ligand dissociation making the process electrochemically irreversible [Ru~+(LL)~]~+ + e--, [Ru+(LL),]+-, [Ru+(LL)J++LL (25) Such behavior has been reported for iridium complexes 1641, but has never been clearly observed in the case of ruthenium. It is important to note that, if the Koopmans theorem is valid for the startmg rgg system and for the one-electron reduced species, the 7~: or CJ& orbitals that can be involved in the reduction processes (redox orbitals) are the same orbitals which are involved in the MLCT and MC transition, respectively (spectroscopic orbitals). Thus, reversibility of the first reduction step, indicating a ligand centered LUMO, also implies (to a first approximation) that the lowest excited state is MLCT. More generally, there are correlations between the electrochemical and spectroscopic data, as will be discussed in Section D (ii). 103 a b Fig. 15. Pictorial description of the electron promoted to the rnc orbital: (a) multichelate ring delocalized orbital; (b) single chelate ring localized orbital [65]. (viii) Localization and delocalization problems For most complexes of the Ru(II) polypyridine family the excited state responsible for luminescence emission and bimolecular excited state reactions is a 3MLCT (or a cluster [48] of closely spaced 3MLCT levels), i.e. a state obtained prOmOting a metal TM orbital to a ligand 7~: orbital (Fig. 12). As mentioned before, the same ~2 orbital is involved in the one-electron reduction process. Even if we leave aside a detailed spin and symmetry description of the 3MLCT state, the problem arises whether the spectroscopic and redox orbital is best described as a multichelate ring delocalized orbital (Fig. 15(a)) or a single chelate ring localized orbital with a small amount of interligand interaction (Fig. 15(b)) [65]. This problem has been tackled with a variety of techniques both on reduced and excited complexes. Compelling evidence for “spatially isolated” [66] redox orbitals has been obtained from low temperature cyclic voltammetry 162,631, electron spin resonance [67-691, electronic absorption spectra [70-721, nuclear magnetic resonance [73], and resonance Raman spectra [74]. A more detailed discussion of the localization problem will be given in Section D (iii)_ B. Ru(bpy) f + : THE PROTOTYPE (i) Ground state properties The ground state structure of Ru(bpy): ) in its hexafluorophosphate salt has been determined by X-ray crystallography [52]. The complex possesses O3 symmetry (Fig. 13) and the Ru-N bond length of 205.6 pm is somewhat shorter than the 210.4 pm value in Ru(NH,)z+ [75], indicating a significant backbonding between Ru(I1) and the V* orbitals of bpy. A five line 13C 104 I, I +0.8 I I 0 I I1 -0.8 I -1.8 I V Fig. 16. Cyclic voltammogram of Ru(bpy)g+ in acetonitrile. NMR spectrum is observed for the solvated ‘species [54] and the ‘H NMR spectrum [76] can be interpreted in terms of four coupled spins in each six equivalent pyridine rings. The solution NMR data are therefore consistent with retention of O3 symmetry for the solvated species. Resolution of the enantiomers can be achieved [77], and these are found to be thermally stable with respect to racemization [78]. The Ru(bpy) f ’ cation shows remarkable chemical stability. For example it can be stored in aqueous solutions for months [79] and is reported to be unaffected by boiling concentrated HCl or 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions [SO]. The cyclic voltammograrn of Ru(bpy)g+ in AN (potentials vs. Ag electrode) is shown in Fig. 16. One oxidation and three reduction processes, all monoelectronic and reversible, can be observed. The redox potentials are independent of solvent (for AN, DMSO, DMF, and propylene carbonate) [81]. The oxidized form, Ru(bpy)s+, can be easily obtained by chemical oxidation of Ru(bpy) $’ with nitric acid [80], dichlorine ]82] or lead dioxide [83]. The absorption spectrum of Ru(bpy)i+ shows a weak band at - 420 nm (Glax = 3.3 x lo3 M-l cm-‘) and a broad and weak absorption at longer wavelengths [14]. Ru(bpy):+ is reduced by water, but the reaction mechanism is very complicated and governed by the pH of the solution and the presence of catalysts, even at impurity levels [84-901. Under most experimental conditions the amount of 0, generated is much less than that expected on the basis of a simple reduction of Ru(bpy);+ to Ru(bpy):+ . The and reduction of aqueous Ru(bpy), 2+ by pulse radiolysis via the CH,O(CH3)2COradicals at pH 11-13 yields Ru(bpy)z 1911 which can also be prepared by extensive electrolysis of Ru(bpy):+ in non-aqueous solvents [71,72,92,93]. The absorption spectrum of Ru(bpy)g shows a broad and intense ( E _ - lo* M-l cm-‘) band in the visible with maximum at - 510 nm. Compelling evidence for reduction taking place on a single chelate ring localized orbital (spatially isolated orbital, Sections A (viii) and D (iii)) has been obtained, so that the reduced form is best described as a Ru(I1) complex containing a coordinated bpy- ligand radical, [R~~+(bpy)~(bpy-)I+_ 105 Wbw) [91,94]. ; does not reduce water under neutral or alkaline conditions (ii) Absorption spectrum The absorption spectrum of Ru(bpy) 5’ is shown in Fig. 17 along with the proposed assignments [E&14,15,48,54,95]. The bands at 185 nm (not shown in the Figure) and 285 nm have been assigned to LC VT+ 7r* transitions by comparison with the spectrum of protonated bipyridine [96]. The two remaining intense bands at 240 and 450 nm have been assigned to MLCT d-*n* transitions. The shoulders at 322 and 344 nm might be MC transitions. In the long wavelength tail of the absorption spectrum a shoulder is present at about 550 nm (c - 600) when the absorption measurement is made on Ru(bpy)z+ in an ethanol-methanol glass at 77 K [973. This absorption feature is thought to correspond to the lowest ‘MLCT excited state(s). In spite of the presence of the heavy Ru atom, it has been established that it is reasonable to assign the electronic transitions of Ru(bpy)$+ as being to “ singlet” or “ triplet” states. In particular, a singlet character 4 10% has been estimated [50] for the lower-lying excited states of Ru(bpy)z+ . The maximum of the ‘MLCT band at - 450 mn is slightly sensitive to solvent, suggesting an instantaneous sensing of the formation of the dipolar excited state [R~~*(bpy)~(bpy-)]~+ [98] (see Section D (iii)). (iii) Deactivation of upper excited states As mentioned in the introduction (Section A (ii)) the upper excited states of transition metal complexes undergo either chemical reaction or radiation- 5 0 0” 4 3 21 D 1 I 300 400 500 6 0 A fnm) Fig. 17.

Electronic absorption spectrum of the lowest excited state of Ru(bpy)z+ [loll. less deactivation to the lowest excited state. For Ru(bpy):+ the lowest excited state (or, better, the cluster of lowest excited states) is relatively long lived and its formation and disappearance can be easily monitored by flash spectroscopy and luminescence decay. The absorption spectrum of the lowest excited state is shown in Fig. 18 [99-1011. The risetime of the lowest excited state upon excitation of spin allowed excited states was estimated to be +K 1 ns for Ru(bpy)i+ [102,103], indicating that the conversion of the upper excited states to the lowest one is indeed very fast. The quantum yield of formation of the lowest excited state Q[)3,,cr (and thus, the efficiency of intersystem crossing from the upper singlets obtained by excitation to the lowest triplet, rise) is essentially unity [99,104-1061. Interestingly, Q)3MLcT has also been evaluated by a photochemical technique, based on the ability of ( 3CT)Ru(bpy) ; + to function as a reductant (Section B (vi)) [106]. This method, which may be useful also for other complexes, works in the following way. The reaction of ( 3CT)Ru(bpy)z+ with S20iyields SOiand the strongly oxidizing SO; radical. Once formed, Ru(bpy); + 7 this radical reacts with ground state Ru(bpy)z+ to yield a second Ru(bpy);+ complex ion. Experimentally, the quantum yield for disappearance of was followed by monitoring the 450 nm absorption Ru(bpy):+, Q-Ruz+t, band of Ru(bpy)i+, and the measurements were made as a function of [S,Ol-1. From a plot of l/Q_ RU2+versus l/[S,O,2-], the limiting value of concentration was found to be 2.0 + 0.2. This Q,-_i@+ for infinite S&$value can only occur if all the Ru(bpy)z+ excited states which are formed 107 b 600 h,nm 700 Fig. 19. Emission spectrum of * R 4 bw):+ in alcoholic solution: (a) at 77 K; (b) at room temperature. upon light absorption react to yield Ru(bpy) :’ and SO;, and all of the SO; goes on to react with Ru(bpy)z+ to form a stoichiometric amount of Ru(bpy) ; + (iv) Emission properties Excitation of Ru(bpy) z + in any of its absorption bands leads to a luminescence emission (Fig. 19) whose intensity, lifetime, and energy position are more or less temperature dependent. Detailed studies on the temperature dependence [48,107-1111 of the luminescence lifetime and quantum yield in the temperature range 2-70 K showed that luminescence originates from a set of three closely spaced levels (A E 10 and 61 cm-‘) in thermal equilibrium. The theoretical description of the luminescent levels continues to be a matter of debate. There is no doubt about their MLCT nature, whereas different opinions exist on whether these levels can be described by a spin quantum number and whether the promoted electron resides in a single bpy ligand or in a delocalized 7~* orbital. Recent results suggest that the best description is that which assumes a substantial triplet character and a single ligand localized excitation (Section D (iii)). This cluster of luminescent, closely spaced excited states will be indicated in the following by * Ru(bpy) 5’. In rigid alcoholic glass at 77 K the emission lifetime of *Ru(bpy)s+ is - 5 ps and the emission quantum yield is - 0.4 (Table 1). Taken together with the unitary intersystem crossing efficiency, these figures yield (see eqn. 108 1 ll+ 1 1 1 6 lOOO/T,K -1 ‘0 Fig. 20. Temperature dependence of the emission lifetime of * Ru(bpy)$+ in nitrile solution [131. 2) a value of - 13 ps for the radiative lifetime. Values of this order of magnitude have been found for M-LCT excited states of other transition metal complexes [112-1141. Ligand centered excited states exhibit radiative lifetimes in the ms range [ill-113,115--1181. With increasing temperature, the emission lifetime (Fig. 20) and quantum yield decrease [48,95,96,119-1371. This behavior may be accounted for (see Section D (i)) by a stepwise term and two Arrhenius terms: B l’T= k” + 1-t exp[C(l/T- A l/T,)] + 1 e-A-WRT + A 2 e-AWRT (26) The value of the various parameters are somewhat dependent on the nature of the solvent. In propionitrile-butyronitrile (4 : 5 v/v) the values are as follows [131,132]: k, = 2 x 10’ s-l; B = 2.1 x lo5 s-i; A, = 5.6 x lo5 s-i; AE, = 90 cm-‘; A, = 1.3 X lOI s-l;AE, = 3960 cm-‘. Included in k, are the radiative k; and nonradiative k," rate constants at 84 K. The stepwise term B is due to the melting of the matrix (100-150 K) and is thought to correspond to the coming into play of vibrations capable of facilitating radiationless deactivation [132]. In the same temperature interval a red shift of - 1000 cm-l is observed in the maximum of the emission band [132]. The Arrhenius term with A, = 5.6 X lo5 s-l and AE, = 90 cm-’ is thought to correspond to the thermal equilibration with a level lying at slightly 109 higher energy and having the same electronic nature. The second Arrhenius term is thought to correspond to a thermally activated surface crossing to an upper-lying 3MC level which undergoes fast deactivation (Section D (i)). Identification of this higher level as a 3MC state is based upon the observed photosubstitution behavior at elevated temperatures [119], consistent with established photoreactivity patterns for d6 metal complexes [2]. Experiments carried out with Ru(bpy)z+ and Ru(bpy-ds) f + in H,O and D,O [119,130,138] indicate that k,” is sensitive to deuteration, as expected for a weak-coupled radiationless process [139-1421. By contrast, A, is insensitive to deuteration, suggesting a strong-coupled (surface crossing) deactivation pathway, which may be related to the observed photosensitivity. It should be noted that the decrease in lifetime on melting has also been explained on the basis of the energy gap law because of the correspondent red shift in the emission band [142]. (v) Photosubstitution and photoracemization processes Although Ru( bpy) ; + is normally considered as photochemically inert towards ligand substitution, there is increasing evidence that this is not so [14,15,142]. In aqueous solution the quantum yield of Ru(bpy);+ disappearance is in the range 1O-5-1O- 3, depending on the pH of the solution and temperature. The exact nature of the reaction products has not been elucidated [119,124]. In chlorinated solvents such as CH,Cl, the photochemistry of [Ru(bpy),]X, (X = Cl-, Br-, NCS-) is well behaved [124,143], giving rise to Ru(bpy) 2 X, as final product. The quantum yields are in the range 10-1-10-2. The PF6- salt is photoinert. A substantial difference between aqueous and CH,Cl, solutions is that salts of Ru(bpy)$+ are completely ion-paired in the latter medium. A detailed mechanism for the ligand photosubstitution reaction for Ru(bpy):+ has been proposed [124] (Fig. 21). According to this mechanism, thermally activated formation of a 3MC excited state (vide supra) leads to the cleavage of a Ru-N bond, with formation of a five-coordinate square pyramidal species. In the absence of coordinating ions, as with the PF6- salt, this square pyramidal species returns to Ru(bpy) $’ _ When coordinating anions are present, as in the Cl- salt, a hexacoordinated monodentate bpy intermediate is formed. Once formed, this monodentate bpy species can undergo loss of bpy and formation of Ru(bpy) *X2, or a “self-annealing” process (chelate ring closure), with reformation of Ru(bpy);+ . The “self-annealing” protective step is favored in aqueous solution, presumably because of stabilization of the cationic Ru(bpy)z+ speci?s, whereas formation of neutral Ru(bpy),X, complexes is favored in low polarity solvents. Photoracemization of Ru(bpy) 2 + [144] also occurs with low quantum yield (2.9 x 110 --_ 4? I X- ,I // --- I’ _ ,’ +x- -by ground state Fig. 21. Schematic representation of the proposed mechanism of kigand photosubstitution reactions of Ru(bpy):+ [124]. lop4 in water at 25 OC). This process can be accounted for by a rearrangement of the square pyramidal primary photoproduct (Fig. 21) into a trigonal bipyramidal intermediate which can lead back to either the A or the A isomer [124]. Ligand photodissociation is, of course, a major drawback for the use of Ru(bpy) ; + as LAS or LES (Sections B (viii) and (ix)). From the above discussion, it follows that to avoid ligand photodissociation the population of 3MC and/or ligand dissociation from 3MC should be prevented. Population of 3MC can be prevented or at least reduced by: (a) addition of sufficient quencher to capture 3MLCT before surface crossing to 3MC can occur; (b) working at low temperature (Section D (i)); (c) increasing the energy gap between 3MLCT and 3MC; (d) increasing pressure [145,146]. On the other hand, ligand dissociation from 3MC can be reduced (e) avoiding coordinating anions in solvent of low dielectric constant and (f) linking together the three bpy ligands so as to form a single caging ligand which encapsulates the metal ion. Points (c) and (f) are particularly interesting and much effort is presently devoted to research along such directions. The tuning of excited state energy by changing ligands (point (c) above) will be discussed in detail in Section C. Caging Ru2+ into a single polypyridine type ligand (point (f)) poses severe synthetic problems. A first step in this direction has been the synthesis [147] of the polypyridine cage-type ligands shown in Fig. 22. The Ru(I1) complexes of such ligands, however, have not yet been prepared. Furthermore, there might be subtle problems related to the shape and size of the cage. If the Ru-N bonds are too long and/or the bite angles are unfavorable, the ligand field strength would be small and the consequent decrease in energy of the lowest ‘MC level would compromise 111 m %3 N -N N- /“\ - /“\ w (a) (b) Fig. 22. Cage-type polypyridine ligarrds 11471. the lifetime of 3MLCT, since caging is not expected to slow down the physical radiationless deactivation of 3MC [148 1. The short lifetime of ‘MLCT at room temperature for Ru(trpy)$+ (less than 5 ns [149,150]) is likely due to fast radiationless decay via a low lying 3MC level. (vi) Quenching processes of the 3MLCT excited state: energy and electron transfer As discussed in Section A (ii), an excited state which is sufficiently long lived may be involved in energy and electron transfer processes in fluid solution_ The lowest 3MLCT excited state of Ru(bpy)z+ lives long enough (Table 1) to encounter other solute molecules (even when these are present at relatively low concentration) and possesses suitable properties to play the role of energy donor, electron donor, or electron acceptor. As is also shown in Fig. 23, the energy available to * Ru(bpy)z+ for energy transfer processes is 2.12 eV and its reduction and oxidation potentials are + 0.84 and - 0.86 V (in water). It follows that *Ru(bpy)s+ is at the same time a good energy donor (eqn. 27), a good electron acceptor (eqn. 28), and a good electron donor (eqn. 29) : Rdbpy): ++ Q - Ru(bpy)t+ + *Q energy transfer (27) + + Q * Ru(bpy)i+ + Q- oxidative quenching (28) * Ru(bpy): + + Q -+ Ru(bpy)T + Q’ reductive quenching (29) * * WbPYE The direct observation of redox products in flash photolysis experiments represents the strongest evidence to support the occurrence of oxidative and reductive quenching mechanisms. These observations can be performed in a few cases with continuous irradiation [106,151] and more often in flash 112 Fig. 23. Molecuku quantities of Ru(bpy)$’ relevant for energy and electron transfer processes. * * Ru(bpy);+ indicates spin-allowed excited states and * Ru(bpy)$+ indicates the lowest spin-forbidden excited state (3MLCT) Ru(bpy);+ . photolysis experiments because usually the redox products decay rapidly either by back electron transfer reactions to reform the starting materials or by secondary reactions to form other products. In practice, the possibility to observe transient absorptions is related to the changes in the optical density of the solution caused by the photoreaction. Bleaching and recovering of the Ru(bpy) : + spectrum can often be used for kinetic measurements. The absorption band at 680 nm of Ru(bpy):+ (Section B (i)) is too weak to detect small Ru(bpy) 33’ concentrations, so that in oxidative quenching processes one is forced to use the absorption spectrum of Q- to monitor product formation. By contrast, Ru(bpy)T exhibits a strong absorption band at 510 nm (Section B (i)), which is particularly useful to investigate reductive quenching reactions. Following some pioneering work [151-1551, literally hundreds of bimolecular excited state reactions of Ru(bpy)z+ and of its derivatives have been studied in the last 15 years. An accurate compilation of rate constants of electron transfer processes will soon be available [16], so that we do not review this field in detail. We only wish to illustrate a few examples to show that these excited state reactions can be used for mechanistic studies as well as for potential applications of the greatest interest. The early interest in Ru(bpy):+ photochemistry arose from the possibility of using its long-lived excited state as energy donor in energy transfer processes. Although several sensitized reactions attributed to energy transfer processes (see, e.g. refs. 156, 157) were later shown to proceed via electron transfer [155], there are a few, very interesting cases in which energy transfer quenching of * Ru(bpy) z + has been firmly demonstrated. A clear example is the quenching of * Ru(bpy) z’ by Cr( CN) z-, where sensitized phosphores- 113 cence of the chromium complex has been observed both in fluid solution [158-1621 and in the solid state [163-1651: * Ru(bpy);+ (2Eg)Cr(CN);- + Cr(CN);j + Ru(bpy);+ Cr(CN);- + (*&)Cr(CN);- (30) + hv (31) was also used to demonEnergy transfer from * Ru(bpy) i’ to Cr(CN)zstrate that the photosolvation reaction observed upon direct excitation of Cr(CN)zdoes not originate from the luminescent ‘Eg state of the chromium complex [158,166]. It should be pointed out that both reductive and oxidative *Ru(bpy)z+ electron transfer quenchings by Cr(CN)zare thermodynamically forbidden because it is very difficult to reduce or oxidize Cr(CN)z[162]. Cr(bpy)z+, by contrast, can be very easily reduced and with this quencher oxidative electron transfer prevails over energy transfer * Ru@PY)? 3+ k=3.3X109M-‘s-’ + Cr(bw)3 )Ru(bpy)? + Cr(bpy):+ (32) as is shown by the appearance of the Cr(bpy);+ absorption spectrum in flash photolysis experiments [167]. Reaction (32) converts 71% of the spectroscopic energy (2.12 eV) of the excited state reactant into chemical energy of the products. As usually happens in these simple homogeneous systems, the converted energy cannot be stored but is immediately dissipated into heat by the back electron transfer reaction: 2-t k = 2 X 109M-‘s-’ R@w):+ + Cr(bpy)3 - R~@PY): + + Cr(bpy): + (33) A carefully studied example of reductive electron transfer quenching (reaction 34) is that involving Euii as a quencher [168,169]: *Ru(bpy);+ 2+ k = 2.8 x lO’M-‘s-’ + Eu.. ,Ru(bpy),+ + Eu3,; (34) The difference spectrum obtained by flash photolysis after a 30 ns light pulse shows a bleaching in the region around 430 nm due to depletion of Ru(bpy) ; + and an increased absorption around 500 nm due to the formation of Ru(bpy)g (note that both EutT and Eu~: are transparent in this spectral region). Clear kinetic evidence for reductive quenching comes from the observation that the growth of the absorption at 500 nm occurs at a rate equal to the rate of decay of the luminescence emission of * Ru(bpy)$ +. As it may happen in excited state reactions (Fig. 8(b)) the products of reaction (34) have a high energy content and thus they give rise to a back electron transfer reaction 3+ RU(bPY),t + Eu, k = 2.7 x ~O’M-‘S-~ ,Ru(bpy);+ + Eu2,; (35) 114 that can be monitored (on a longer time scale) through the recovering of the 430 nm absorption or the disappearance of the 500 nm absorption. In several cases direct evidence for energy transfer quenching (i.e., sensitized luminescence or absorption spectrum of the excited acceptor) or electron transfer quenching (i.e., absorption spectrum of redox products) is difficult or even impossible to obtain. In such cases, free energy correlations of rate constants are quite useful to elucidate the reaction mechanism [12,162,170-1721. (vii) Chemical generation ofthe 3MLCT eiectrochemiluminescence processes excited state: chemiluminescence and As mentioned in Section A (iv), excited states can be generated in very exergonic electron transfer reactions (Fig. 9). Formation of excited states can be easily demonstrated when the excited states are luminescent species. Because of its stability in the reduced and oxidized forms and of the strong luminescence of * Ru(bpy) g’ , Ru(bpy) $ + is an extremely versatile base reactant for a variety of chemiluminescent processes [38,39,83,173-1751. In principle, there are two ways to generate the luminescent * Ru(bpy)$+ excited state in chemical reactions. One way (see eqn. (36)) is to oxidize more Ru(bpy) ; with a species X having reduction potential E’(X/X-) positive than 0.84 V, and another way (eqn. 37) is to reduce Ru(bpy)i+ with a species Y- whose potential E’(Y/Y-) is more negative than - 0.86 V (see also Fig. 23). Ru(bpy); + X ---* * Ru(bpy);+ Ru(bpy);+ + Y- +- X- + * Ru(bpy):+ * RU(bPYE + + Ru(bpy);+ + Y + hv A variety of oxidants (e.g. S,Oi- [176,177]) and reductants (e.g., e; [178,179], N,H, [180], oxalate ion [181,182], OH- [ISO]) have been found to be active in these chemiluminescence processes. In some cases (e.g., with OH-), the reaction mechanism cannot be a simple outer sphere electron transfer reaction and the emitting species could be a slightly modified (on the ligands) complex. It should also be pointed out that minor amounts of oxidizing and reducing impurities are sufficient to produce luminescence in chemiluminescence and electrochemiluminescce experiments [183]. The most elegant way [59] to obtain chemiluminescence from Ru(bpy);+ solutions is to produce the oxidized and/or reduced form of the complex “in situ” by electrochemical methods. Three classical experiments of this type can be performed. 115 (a) To pulse the potential applied to a working electrode between the oxidation and reduction potentials of Ru(bpy):+ in a suitable solvent [59,184]. In such a way the reduced and oxidized form produced in the same region of space can undergo a comproportionation reaction where enough energy is available to produce an excited state and a ground state (see also Fig. 23): Ru(bpy):+ + e- -+ Ru(bpy)c (39) Ru(bpy)z+ - e- + Ru(bpy)z+ (40) Ru(bpy); + Ru(bpy);+ -+ * Ru(bpy);+ + Ru(bpy);+ (41) in the presence of a strong oxidant (reductive (b) To reduce Ru(bpy):+ oxidation). For example, luminescence is obtained upon continuous reduction of Ru(bpy) $’ at a working electrode in the presence of S,Oi[176,177]. This oxidant in a first one-electron oxidation reaction generates the very powerful oxidant SO; that either can oxidize Ru(bpy)z to *Ru(bpy):+ (eqn. 43) or Ru(bpy)s+ to Ru(bpy):+ (eqn. 44) which then reacts with Ru(bpy)g (eqn. 41) to yield the luminescent excited state Ru(bpy): + + e- -+ Ru(bpy)T (39) Ru(bpy); + S,O;- --, Ru(bpy);+ + SO, Ru(bpy); + SO, --, * Ru(bpy);+ + SO:- (43) Ru(bpy);+ + SO, + Ru(bpy);+ + SO:- (44) Ru(bpy); + Ru(bpy);+ Ru(bpy)z+ - e- -+ Ru(bpy)z+ Ru(bpy);+ + C20;- Ru(bpy);+ + CO, + * Ru(bpy);+ + SO:- (42) + Ru(bpy);+ (41) (c) To oxidize Ru(bpy) 3’ in the presence of a strong reductant (oxidative reduction).

Pictorial representation of the three possible electronic transitions in the comproportionation reaction between Ru(bpy)i’ and Ru(bpy) l; for details see text. These chemiluminescent electron transfer reactions are quite interesting from an applicative [46,47,185] as well as from a theoretical viewpoint. In particular, the comproportionation reaction (41) poses subtle mechanistic problems that we will now discuss briefly. As shown in Scheme 1, the comproportionation reaction in principle can lead to two ground states (eqn. 47), one ground state and one excited state (eqn. 41), or two excited states (eqn. 48). Furthermore, in the case in which one ground state and one excited state are formed, the excited state can originate either from the oxidized (eqn. 41(a)) or reduced (eqn. 41(b)) parent. Formation of two excited states (eqn. 48) can clearly be ruled out for energetic reasons. Which one of the three remaining processes takes place (and why) is a matter of great theoretical interest. Reaction (47) is so exergonic as to fall in the “ inverted region” predicted by the Marcus electron transfer theory [23,186,187], and the occurrence of chemiluminescence from the comproportionation reaction with an efficiency for reaction (41) near 100% [188,189] has indeed been taken as evidence [14,188] in favour of this inverted region. Although excess exergonicity is certainly a limiting factor in the reaction rates [17,19,20,31] it should be noticed [190] that reactions (47), (41a), and (41b), differ from one another because different orbitals are involved. As shown in Fig. 24, formation of two ground state molecules (eqn. (47)) involves electron transfer from a ligand orbital of the reduced species to a metal orbital of the oxidized species. Formation of an excited state deriving from the oxidized species (eqn. 41(a)) involves a ligand-to-ligand electron transfer, whereas formation of an excited state from the reduced parent (eqn. 41(b)) requires a metal-to-metal electron transfer. Simple orbital overlap arguments suggest that the electronic interaction between the two reaction partners decreases in the electron transfer series L --j L > L += M > M + M. It follows that reaction (41) is favored over reaction (47) not only for nuclear reasons (Marcus inverted region), but also because of a more 117 favorable electronic factor via the reaction path (41a). In other words, when the two reactants of eqns. (47) and (41) approach each other, reaction (41) is expected to prevail because it can take place over larger separation distances. This simple orbital overlap argument also suggests that reactions (41a) and (41b), which are exactly identical from a thermodynamic viewpoint and also exhibit the same nuclear intrinsic barrier, may nevertheless occur with different rates. Unfortunately, there is no simple way to “label” the reactants and products of the comproportionation reaction and to obtain experimental data relevant to this subtle mechanistic alternative. Another interesting chemiluminescent reaction dealing with the Marcus inverted region has been reported recently [175]. (viii) Ru(bpy)i + as a light absorption sensitizer As mentioned in Section A (v), there are potential photochemical reactions which do not occur because the reactants are not able to absorb light. Such reactions can be photosensitized by suitable chemical species that have been called LAS (light absorption sensitizers) [38]. In the same section we have also seen that a molecule must satisfy a number of kinetic, thermodynamic, spectroscopic and excited state requirements to play the role of LAS. It may also be seen from the above discussion (see also Fig. 23), that satisfies to a noticeable degree most of such requirements and is Ru(bpy):+ therefore widely used as a light absorption sensitizer [8,13,14,31,38,41,54,191]. Among the great variety of “potential” photochemical reactions that can be sensitized by Ru(bpy) ’ , an interesting example is that of the reduction of methylviologen (l,l’-dimethyl-4,4’-bipyridinium dication, MV2+) by triphenylamine (NPh,) [192]: z MV*’ + NPh,--j,L> MV+ + NPH: AG = + 1.45 eV (49) This process is strongly endergonic as a dark reaction but it could be driven by visible light (i.e., by photons having an energy content higher than 1.45 ev). However, neither MV2+ nor NPh, are able to abSorb visible light, so that such a “potential” photochemical reaction cannot take place by direct irradiation: MV2+ + NPh, + hv-,‘/-• MV+ + NPh; AG -C 0 (50) When Ru(bpy) 5’ is present in the solution, it can be excited by visible light and its excited state is able to reduce MV*+ to MV+: Ru(bpy);+ *Ru(bpy);+ + hv -+ * Ru(bpy):+ + MV*’ --, Ru(bpy);+ (51) + MV+ (52) 118 h3 Fig. 25. An example of the use of Ru(bpy)$+ energy is converted into chemical energy [192]. Using high concentrations of NPh,, Ru(bpy);+ + NPh, + Ru(bpy);+ as light absorption sensitizer (LAS): light the reaction + NPh; (53) prevails over the back electron transfer reaction of Ru(bpy)z+ with MV+ and the net result of the experiment is the occurrence of the potential photochemical reaction represented by eqn. 50, driven by the light absorbed bY RWPY) ; + (Fig. 25) [192,193]. Much more important for practical applications is the splitting of water into hydrogen and oxygen by visible light 1/2H,O+hvj/+1/2H,+1/40, AG= +1.23eV (54) This reaction, which in the dark is endergonic by 1.23 eV, could be driven by visible photons which, however, are not absorbed by water. In principle, Ru(bpy) ; + can play the role of LAS even in this case. At pH 7, the energetics of the relevant steps are as follows: * Ru(bpy)t+ WbPYX + H+ + Ru(bpy)z+ + + l/2 + l/2 H, AG = - 0.44 eV (55) AG= (56) H,O ---*Ru(bpy);+ + l/4 O2 + H+ -0.45 eV In practice, however, reaction 55 is too slow to compete with the excited state decay. The great number of studies on the problem of the photoinduced water splitting reactions have been reviewed recently by several authors fl3-15,42-45,194-1981 and will not be discussed any further here. The conversion of light energy into electrical energy (via intermediate conversion to chemical energy) is also possible using Ru(bpy)s+ as LAS. Consider, for example, a cell consisting of two identical compartments separated by a sintered glass disk and containing a Pt electrode and an 119 ‘-pv)$ %idbpy) ‘3’ 7 h3 Fig. 26. An example of the use of Ru(bpy)z+ energy (photogalvanic effect) [199]. as LAS: light energy is converted into electrical aqueous solution of Ru(bpy) s’ and Fe3+ [199]. If one compartment is illuminated and the other is kept in the dark, an electrical potential is generated which depends on the incident light intensity (photogalvanic effect [200]). This potential is due to the difference in the composition of the solutions in the dark and illuminated compartments caused by the following reactions (Fig. 26): Ru(bpy):+ * Ru(bpy)$+ wbPY)z+ + hv + * Ru(bpy);+ + Fe3+ -+ Ru(bpy)z+ (51) + Fe’+ (57) can alsobe used to convert light into electrical energy and, at the same time, to carry on a net redox process. For example, photocurrents can be obtained from a cell where the net reaction involves the photochemical oxidation of water by Co(C,O,)~-. The reaction mechanism is as follows [201] (Fig. 27): Cathodic compartment Ru(bpy);+ * wbPY):+ Ru(bpy)i+ Anodic OH- + hv - * Ru(bpy):+ + Co(C,O,);+ e- - ---* Ru(bpy);+ (51) + Co2+ + 3C,O,2- Ru(bpy)z+ (58) (59) compartment - e- - (ix) Ru(bpyl,2 l/2 H,O, (60) + as u light emission sensitizer As shown in Section A (v), potential chemihuninescent reactions can be transformed into effective chemiluminescent reactions by species called light 120 N- co*++ 3c 2 o*4 Ru(bpW OH- 4 Ru(bpy)$+ 3w32 $ -i- lRu(bpv)$+ 7 h$ as LAS: Fig. 27. An example of the use of Ru(bpy)z+ energy and to carry on a net redox process [201]. light is used to generate electrical emission sensitizers (LES) that have appropriate kinetic, thermodynamic, spectroscopic, and excited state properties [38]. Ru(bpy);+ possesses such properties to a noticeable degree and is extensively used as LES. A very interesting example of this type of reaction is that concerning the well known reduction of lead dioxide by oxalate ions in acid medium l/2 PbO, + l/2 C20z- + 2H+ + l/2 Pb2+ + CO2 + H,O AG - - 2 eV (61) which would be sufficiently exergonic to produce visible light. In fact, this reaction produces only heat. However, when the reaction is carried out in the presence of Ru(bpy)$+, light emission is clearly observed [181]. The most likely reaction mechanism involves first the oxidation of Ru(bpy)$+ by by C,O,’ - already discussed to PbO, and then the reduction of Ru(bpy);+ yield the luminescent *Ru(bpy)z+ excited state (Fig. 28). Ru(bpy): + + l/2 Ru(bpy);+ + C20;- Ru(bpy):+ + CO; *Ru(bpy);+ Pb02 + 2H+ --, Ru(bpy);+ + + l/2 Pb++ + H,O (62) + Ru(bpy);+ + CO, + CO; (45) * Ru(bpy);+ + CO, (46) --, Ru(bpy);+ + hv (38) In the previously discussed (Section B (vii)) electrochemiluminescent reactions involving Ru(bpy)c+ and S,Oi- , Ru(bpy)i+ and C20i-, and Ru(bpy) z’ alone, Ru(bpy) <’ actually plays the role of LES, as can be better seen from Figs. 29-31. In particular, the electrogenerated chemiluminescence process shown in Fig. 31 is to some extent the reverse of the photogalvanic effect previously seen (Fig. 26) and the processes in which chemiluminescence is generated by a combined use of chemical and electri- 121 T?ucbPv,$ Ru(b&+ hS Fig. 28. An example of the use of Ru(bpy);+ energy is converted into light energy [181]. as light emission sensitizer (LES): chemical cal energy (Figs. 29 and 30) are to some extent the reverse of the process in which light carries on a chemical reaction generating a photocurrent (Fig. 27). The most curious reaction in which Ru(bpy)z+ plays the role of LES is in the oscillating Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction. This very complicated reaction essentially consists of the oxidation of carboxylic acids by bromate ions (eqn. 63) catalyzed by one-electron redox couples such as Ru(bpy)z+/2+ : 3BrOF + 5CH,(COOH), + 3H+ R”(bpy)J3+‘2+PICO, + 3BrCH(COOH), + 2HCOOH + 5H,O (63) This reaction proceeds through periodic rate fluctuations (oscillating reaction) which also cause a fluctuation in the concentration of Ru(bpy):+. When it was recognized that Ru(bpy)i+ can be reduced by carboxylic acids thus emitting light (see, e.g., eqns. 45 and 46), it was thought [202] that because of the fluctuation of the Ru(bpy)i+ concentration and the presence of carboxylic acid an oscillating chemiluminescence emission should be Fig. 29. An example of the use of Ru(bpy)z+ as LES: electrical energy and chemical energy are converted into light energy in a reductive oxidation process [176,177]. Fig. 30. An example of the use of Ru(bpy)$+ as LES: electrical energy and chemical energy are converted into light energy in an oxidative reduction process [181,182]. h3 Fig. 31.

An example of the use of Ru(bpy)$+ as LES: chemical energy stored into y-irradiated solids is converted into light (sensitized lyoluminescence) [203]. produced by the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction. This expectation was fulfilled as shown in Fig. 32 which reports the time dependence of the chemiluminescent signal generated by the reaction. This chemical system can be considered as an artificial firefly, Finally, it has been recently shown [203] that dissolution of y-irradiated NaCl in aqueous solutions containing Ru(bpy)i+ causes generation of the characteristic * Ru(bpy)z+ luminescence. The reaction mechanism of this process, where Ru(bpy) z’ mediates the conversion into light of the chemical energy stored into y-irradiated solids (sensitized lyoluminescence), involves a complicated sequence of redox reactions initiated by the dissolution in water of the I;r and V-centres of the irradiated NaCl crystals. First Ru(bpy)G+ is reduced to Ru(bpy)T or oxidized to Ru(bpy) i’. Then, oxidation of Ru(bpy)l (eqn. 36) or reduction of Ru(bpy)i+ (eqn. 37) or the comproportionation reaction (eqn. 41) can yield * Ru(bpy)z+ . This unusual process where is again involved as LES is schematically shown in Fig. 33. Ru(bpy) : + C. TUNING FAMILY OF EXCITED STATE PROPERTIES IN THE Ru(II)-POLYPYRIDINE The Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes find their most extensive and interesting applications as (i) photoluminescent compounds (see, e.g., refs. 124 204-206), (“) n excited state reactants in electron and energy transfer processes (Section B (vi)), and (iii) excited state products in electron transfer chemiluminescence and electrochemiluminescence processes (Section B (vii)). In this section we will deal with the possibility of changing gradually (i.e., “to tune”) the excited state properties that are relevant to the above processes. This tuning can be performed by judicious choice and combination of the ligands. In this report more than 200 bidentate polypyridine-type ligands (LL) are contained. In principle, from a group of 200 bidentate ligands, 200 homoleptic complexes Ru(LL)z+ , 39,800 bis-heteroleptic complexes Ru(LL),_,(LL’)i+, and 1,313,400 tris-heteroleptic complexes Ru(LL)(LL’)(LL”)~+ could be prepared. The synthetic accessibility of the first (homoleptic) and the second (bis-heteroleptic), and in some cases even of the third group [207] is another feature of Ru(I1) chemistry, which makes extensive studies in chemically related series possible. (i) Orbital nature of the lowest excited state As we have seen in Section A (ii), for transition metal complexes only the lowest excited state (or the lowest manifold of thermally equilibrated excited states) has a chance to emit luminescence and/or to live long enough to participate in bimolecular processes in fluid solution. In d6 transition metal complexes the MC excited states are strongly distorted compared with the ground state geometry; this causes fast radiationless deactivation which prevents luminescence from occurring and precludes the participation of the excited state in bimolecular processes. LMCT excited states behave in the same way. By contrast, LC and MLCT excited states, being relatively undistorted, undergo slow radiationless decay processes so that they can give rise to luminescence and can be involved in bimolecular reactions. It follows that the ability to determine the orbital nature of the lowest excited state is a key step toward the design of useful compounds. The orbital nature of the lowest excited state can be revealed by examination of the luminescence behavior [48,58,208]. Luminescence arising from a 3MC excited state appears as a gaussian-shaped emission band that is devoid of structure and considerably red-shifted compared with the lowest energy absorption bands. The excited state lifetime is relatively long in rigid matrix at 77 K but decreases rapidly with increasing temperature as does the luminescence intensity, so that 3MC emission usually cannot be observed in fluid solution at room temperature. The radiative lifetime is of the order of 10-3-10-5 s, indicating that the triplet character is attenuated by spin-orbit coupling, as expected for compounds containing a (heavy) metal ion. Luminescence from 3LMCT excited states is rare [209] and not well characterized. It can be expected, however, that 3LMCT emission for d6 125 transition metal complexes gives rise to a broad unstructured band exhibiting a large Stokes shift because of the large distortion caused by the presence of an electron in the a& orbitals [2]. Luminescence from a 3MLCT excited state is generally highly structured at low temperature, with a prominent vibrational progression [48,58,112114,208,210-2141. The lifetime at 77 K is in the l-10 ps range and the radiative lifetime is only - 10 times longer, indicating that the triplet character of MLCT excited states is also strongly attenuated by the metal ion. On increasing temperature, the luminescence intensity and lifetime decrease more or less slowly. Generally, 3MLCT emission is easily observable in fluid solution at room temperature, with lifetimes of the order of 10-1000 ns. Luminescence originating from a 3LC excited state is usually structured at low temperature as is the luminescence originating from 3MLCT states. Usually it is possible to distinguish the two types of emissions on energy and lifetime grounds [48,58,112,115,117,118,214,215]. 3LC emission occurs quite close to (usually, - 1000 cm-’ red-shifted from) the emission of the free ligand, whereas 3MLCT emission can occur, of course, at much lower energies. Furthermore, the 3LC emission is less influenced by the (heavy) metal ion, so that it maintains its spin-forbidden character to a larger degree than the 3MLCT emission. Thus, the radiative lifetime of 3LC emission is usually > 10e4 s. This relatively slow radiative decay can compete with the slow radiationless decay at low temperature in rigid media, as shown by the appearance of 3LC emission bands in rigid matrix at 77 K. In fluid solution at room temperature, however, 3LC emission can seldom be observed because of the occurrence of faster (thermally activated) t&molecular decay processes and/ or bimolecular quenching processes. It has been known for a long time [48,49,58] that in a series of complexes of the same metal ion one can determine the orbital nature of the lowest excited state by a suitable choice of ligands. The energy of the MC excited states depends on the ligand field strength, which in its turn depends on the a-donor and Ir-acceptor properties of the ligands, the steric crowding around the metal (that can preclude a sufficiently close approach between metal and ligand) [40], and the bite angle of the polydentate ligands (which in some cases cannot be optimized because of molecular constraints (see, e.g., ref. 216)). The energy of the MLCT excited states depends on the reduction potential of the ligand involved in the MLCT transition, the oxidation potential of the metal in the complex (which is affected by the ‘electron donor and acceptor properties of all the ligands), and by the charge separation caused by the transition. The energy of the LC excited states depends on intrinsic properties of the ligands, such as the HOMO-LUMO energy gap and the singlet-triplet splitting. 126 The luminescence of Ru(bpy) :’ is a typical 3MLCT emission 1481: (i) it than the phosphorescence occurs at much lower energy ( vmax= 17 200 cm-‘) of free bpy ( vmax= 23 100 cm-l); (ii) the luminescence spectrum is structured at low temperature; (iii) the radiative lifetime is - 13 ps. Most of the known Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes (Table 1) exhibit a luminescent behavior quite similar to that of Ru(bpy) g’ , indicating that the lowest excited state is a 3MLCT state. By an appropriate choice of the ligands, however, it has been possible to change the orbital nature of the lowest excited state. 3MC emission can be obtained decreasing the ligand field strength, e.g. replacing one or two polypyridine ligands by Cl- ions [217]. It should be noted, however, that the m-donor ability of the Cl- ligand also lowers the energy of the MLCT excited states by increasing the negative charge on the metal. Thus, when the Ru(LL) z’ compound has a 3MLCT excited state at very low energy (as is the case for LL = biq or DMCH), substitution of LL by 2Cl- does not cause an inversion on the excited state energy ordering_ A case in which a clean 3MC emission can be observed is Ru(i-biq),Cl, [217]. 3LC emission can be obtained using polypyridine ligands which satisfy the following requirements: (i) presence of a relatively low-lying 3LC level; (ii) sufficiently high ligand field strength to keep 3MC at high energy; (iii) sufficiently negative reduction potential to keep 3MLCT at high energy. The i-biq ligand apparently satisfies these requirements [2X5]. A clear example of tuning of the excited state orbital nature is shown in Fig. 34. For Ru(i-biq)i+ , emission is clearly 3LC in nature, as shown by: (i) the shape of the luminescence spectrum, which is identical to that of the free i-biq ligand; (ii) the energy of the emission maximum, which is less than 1000 cm-l red shifted compared with that of the free ligand; (iii) the relatively long emission lifetime at 77 K (96 ps). When an i-biq ligand is replaced by bpy, which has a higher 3LC, a similar ligand field strength, and is easier to I’.“‘.““‘. l”” Fig. 34. Emission spectra of Ru(i-biq)z+ [217]. (a), Ru(i-biq)2(bpy)2+ (b), and Ru(i-biq)2C12 (c) 127 reduce, the emission (Fig. 34) moves to the red, exhibits a different structure and a shorter lifetime at 77 K (5 ps), maintaining a high intensity in fluid solution at room temperature, as expected for a 3MLCT (specifically, Ru - bpy) emitting level 11281. When an i-biq ligand is replaced by two Clligands, the emission moves further to the red, becomes broad, unstructured, shorter lived (2.2 ps), and can no longer be observed at room temperature as expected for a 3MC emission [217]. Interestingly, a tuning between 3LC and 3MLCT can also be obtained by changing the acidity of the solution [218,219]. This happens for the Ru(LL),(CN), complexes (LL = bpy,phen,i-biq) [218-2201 where the CNligands can be protonated at their nitrogen end. The unprotonated forms of the complexes exhibit the usual 3MLCT emission. Protonation withdraws negative charge from the metal, thus moving the MLCT (Ru - LL) levels to higher energy, leaving the LC levels unaffected. For the diprotonated species, the emission clearly exhibits 3LC character as shown, for example, by the extremely long lifetime (8800 ps) of Ru(i-biq) *(CNH) i+ in H2S04 at 77 K [220]. Another interesting case of tuning of the orbital nature of the lowest excited state by changing the pH of the solution occurs in the complexes of 2,2’-dipyridylamine (HDPA) and its deprotonated form (DPA-) [209]. For the complexes of the deprotonated ligand the lowest excited state appears to be, quite unusually, a 3LMCT level. As mentioned above (see also Table l), in the great majority of Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes the lowest (luminescent) excited state is a 3MLCT level (or a cluster of 3MLCT levels). For a systematic use of these complexes in luminescence and chemiluminescence experiments and in energy transfer processes it is important to have a series of complexes covering a broad range of excited state energies. This can be doie by (i) changing the type of ligand involved in the formation of the MLCT excited state, (ii) controlling the amount of negative charge on the metal by changing the nature of the ligands, and (iii) changing the solvent interaction. The parameters to be taken into consideration are the reduction potential of the free ligand, the u-donor ability of the ligand (which is related to the pK, of the free ligand), m-donor and acceptor properties of the ligand, the charge separation in the excited state (since the coulombic interaction between the hole on the metal and the electron on the ligand decreases with increasing separation distance), and solvent parameters which govern the complexsolvent interaction (dielectric constant, donor and acceptor numbers, etc.). 128 Big changes in the excited state energy can be obtained on changing the ligand involved in the MLCT (e.g., compare Ru(bpy);+ with Ru(bpy) Z(biq) 2+ (Table 1)), while substitution on the ligand aromatic rings offers the opportunity to carry on a fine tuning (e.g., Ru(bpy):+ vs. Ru(4,4’-dm-bpy)$+). Considerable changes in the excited state energy can also be obtained upon substitution of the ligand not involved in the MLCT transition (e.g., Ru (bpy)(i-biq) z+ vs. Ru(i-big) #X2), and on changing the solvent when a mixed ligand complex undergoes a strong solvent interaction (e.g., Ru(bpy),(CN), [221] and Ru(bpy)(CN) i- [222]). For complexes containing only one type of ligand (e.g., Ru(bpy):+) the solvent effect is very small 198, 2231. (iii) Excited state redox properties As we have seen in Section A (ii) the excited state redox potentials are given, to a first approximation, by eqns. 8 and 9 and thus they can be tuned by changing the ground state redox potentials and/or the excited state energy. It should also be noted that, with a few exceptions, the redox and spectroscopic orbitals are the same for each Ru(II)-polypyridine complex [65], so that ground state redox potentials and excited state energy are quantities related to one another (see Section D (ii)). Since reduction usually takes place on a ligand, the ground state reduction potential will be roughly related to the reduction potential of the free ligand (compare, e.g., the first reduction potentials of Ru(bpy)g+ and Ru(biq)$+ , Table 3, with those of the free ligands: EO(bpy/bpy-) = - 2.22 V; E’(biq/biq-) = - 1.75 V). However, the ability of a coordinated ligand to accept an electron also depends on the amount of charge transferred to the metal or received from the metal via the cr and TTT bonding by the other ligands. It should also be recalled that the changes in the reduction potential of the ground state do not cause an equal change in the reduction potential of the excited state because the energy of the 3MLCT level decreases as the ligand becomes easier to be reduced. Oxidation of Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes usually consists in the removal of an electron from a mM(d) metal orbital. The oxidation potential, however, is affected by the nature of the ligands because the amount of electric charge localized on the metal (and thus, the tendency to lose an electron) is governed by the u and w properties of the ligands. For ligands of the same series, the presence of electron withdrawing groups increases the oxidation potential while the opposite occurs, of course, for electron donating substituents. Linear correlations between the reduction potential of the complexes and the Hammet u constants of the free ligands have been obtained for 4,4’- and 5,5’-disubstituted bpy 12241. A change in the oxidation potential of the ground state causes a change in the excited state 129 oxidation potential. The relationship between spectroscopic and redox quantities will be discussed in more detail in Section D (ii). In conclusion, the factors which govern the excited state redox potentials are known and can be manipulated by changing the structure of the ligands. Hundreds of Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes having variable redox potentials in the excited state (and, of course, in the ground state) are now available (Table 3). This is particularly useful for systematic studies where homogeneous series of powerful oxidants or reductants are needed (Section A (iii)). D. OTHER SELECTED (i) Emission TOPICS lifetime and its temperature dependence As we have seen in Section A (ii), the decay of an excited state takes place by competitive radiative and non-radiative processes. This can be expressed by the following equation l/7 = k’ + k”’ (64) where r is the excited state lifetime and k’ and k”’ are the radiative and non-radiative rate constants. The temperature dependence of the emission lifetime of several Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes in the temperature range 1.8-77 K in polymethylmethacrylate matrices has been carefully investigated [107-111.,123]. The luminescence was found to originate from a cluster of three closely lying levels (AE lo-100 cm-‘) which are in Boltzmann equilibrium, each having its own radiative and non-radiative temperature independent rate constant. In this review, we are more interested to examine the temperature dependence of the luminescence lifetime for temperatures from 77 K to room temperature. For this purpose, the two levels separated by 10 cm-’ can be dealt with as a single level and their radiative and non-radiative rate constants account for most of the temperature independent lifetime at 77 K. While the rate of the radiative transition is essentially governed by spin and symmetry factors [48], the radiationless rate constant generally increases with decreasing excited state energy, as expected on the basis of the energy gap law [142]. As the temperature increases, the luminescence lifetime is found to decrease with a behavior which is different from complex to complex. Significant examples are shown in Figs. 20 and 35. To account for such-behavior, l/r can be expressed as a sum of a temperature independent and several temperature dependent terms: l/r = k, + Ck_Y(T) (65) 130 Ln ’ z- 16 - 15- 14- 12(C) (b) 13- l2 12(b) I I I 2 6 1000/T, 1 10 1 K-’ Fig. 35. Temperature dependence of the emission lifetime of Ru(biq);+ (a), Ru(bpy) 2(CN) 2 (b), and Ru(taphen)$+ (c). Curves (b) and (c) are shifted along the ordinate axis as indicated. The temperature dependent terms can be associated, in a schematic way, either to (a) an activated surface crossing to another excited state, described by the Arrhenius equation ki”’ = Aie-AE/RT (66) or (b) to the coming into play of vibrational modes that can favour the radiationless decay and that are prevented at low temperature because of the frozen molecular environment; this second type of thermally activated process can be dealt with by the following equation Bi k”= 1 + exp[ Ci(l/r - l/TB,)] (67) which describes stepwise behavior centered at a certain temperature T’;_ In eqn. (67), Ci is temperature-related to the smoothness of the step and Bi is the value attained by ki at T Z+ T’,,. A way in which eqn. (67) can be derived from arguments based on dielectric relaxation processes has been reported [137j. This equation is particularly useful for describing the behavior of a system in the glass-fluid transition region of a solvent matrix. The l/r vs. l/T plots (Figs. 20 and 35) can usualIy be fitted by using eqn. 65, with an appropriate number of terms given by eqns. (66) and (67). For Ru(biq) z’ (Fig. 39, only on e term of the type of eqn. (66) and one term 131 of the type of eqn. (67) are necessary to account for the behavior observed [ 1281. For Ru(bpy); + (Fig. 20), two eqn. (66) terms and one eqn. (67) term are needed [131]. For Ru(bpy),(CN), (Fig. 35), two eqn. (66) and two eqn. (67) terms are required [137]. For Ru(taphen)s+ (Fig. 35), the behavior is extremely complicated and cannot be fitted with a reasonably simple mathematical equation [136]. When a narrow temperature range concerning fluid solutions is examined, eqn. (67) terms, of course, are not required. There is general agreement [95,119,121,124,129,137,210,225] in the literature that the Arrhenius type term k, = A, e--hEJRT (68) which accounts for the temperature dependence of the luminescence lifetime at high temperature (T > 250 K) is related to an activated surface crossing from the 3MLCT manifold to a 3MC level (eqn. 69) which undergoes photochemical and/ or photophysical deactivation (eqn. 70) 3 k A3 MLc%Y+ (69) Mc 3,,%ground state and/or photoproducts (70) Note that k, represents the sum of all the rate constants of the processes that deactivate 3MC, with the exception of the back surface crossing to 3MLCT. The experimental deactivation rate constant that comes into play at high temperature (eqn. 68) can be expressed as follows on the basis of eqns. (69) and (70): k, = k,[kJ(k, + &)I (71) Eqn. (71) can give rise to two limiting cases (Fig. 36). (i) When k, S- k,, the decay of 3MC is rapid and eqn. (71) becomes k, = k, (72) It follows that A, exp( -AE,/RT) = A, exp( -AEJRT) (73) In this limit, the A, and AE, parameters obtained from the fitting correspond to the pre-exponential factor and activation energy for the 3MLCT - 3 MC surface crossing (Fig. 36(a)). It follows that for complexes whose 3MC_ excited state undergoes a very fast decay, the only way to maintain a long excited state Lifetime in fluid solution at room temperature is to have a large activation energy for the 3MLCT --* 3 MC surface crossing. The energy barrier for this surface crossing is presumably related to the energy gap between the zero-zero energies of the two states. Thus, in principle, this 132 (a) M-L M-L M-L Fig. 36. Schematic representation of the situation of the potential energy surfaces for the three limiting cases described in the text [137]. activation energy can be tuned by tuning the energy of the 3MLCT and 3MC excited states as described in Section C (ii). (ii) When k, S-F=k,, the decay of 3MC is slow compared to the back surface crossing to 3MLCT. In such a case, the two states are in equilibrium and eqn. (71) becomes (74) k = k/k&c exp(AS/R), where AE and AS are the Since kJk, = K= exp( -AE/RT) internal energy and entropy differences between 3MLCT and 3MC, it follows that A, exp( - AEJRT) = k, exp[ - AE/RT] exp[ AS/R] (75) 133 Neglecting the entropic difference between the two states, which is expected to be small, eqn. (75) can be re-written as A, exp[ -AEJRT] = k, exp[ -AE/RT] (76) The meaning of the experimental quantities A, and AE, depends on the nature of the processes that contribute to k,. The following limiting cases are of interest. (ii-a) When the major contribution to k, comes from a chemical reaction or a deactivation process that can be described by an Arrhenius-type equation, eqn. (76) can be written as A, exp[ -AE,/RT] = A, exp[ - (AE, + AE)/RT] (77) In such a case, the A, and AE, parameters obtained from the fitting of the l/r vs. l/T plot correspond to the pre-exponential factor of the decay process of 3MC and to the sum of the 3MC-3MLCT energy gap and the activation energy of the decay process of 3MC (Fig. 36(b)). (ii-b) When the main contribution to k, comes from a non-activated process kb, from eqn. (76) it follows that the pre-exponential parameter A, corresponds to the rate of the non-activated 3MC decay, kb, and the activation energy AE, corresponds to the 3MC- 3MLCT energy gap, A E (Fig. 36(c))_ Thus, even in cases (ii-a) and (ii-b) the lifetime at room temperature can be tuned by an appropriate tuning of the energies of the 3MLCT and 3MC levels via the choice of suitable ligands (Section C (ii)). The meaning of A, and AE, in the three limiting cases described above is as follows (see also Fig. 36). In principle it can be expected that A, and A, are high frequency (1013-1014 s-i ) vibrations whose activation leads to the surface crossing region (Fig. 36(a) and (b)). By contrast, k: can be much smaller because it represents the rate constant of radiationless transition having a poor Franck-Condon factor (Fig. 36(c)). Ru(bpy)g+ (A, 1013-1014 s-l AE - 4000 cm-‘) [128,129] is thought to belong to case (i) however, on the basis of the values of A, and AE= it is [124,129,210,225]. not possible to distinguish between case (i) and case (ii-a). Several other Ru(I1) polypyridine complexes [131,133,135,210,225], exhibit comparable A, and AE, values and are also considered to belong to the same (i) limit. The A, and AE, values for Ru(bpy),(CN),, however, are quite different (A, - 3 x lOlo s-l, AE, = 2400 cm-‘) [137]. In particular, the value for A, is too low to correspond to the frequency factor of a surface crossing process. This suggests that Ru(bpy),(CN), represents a limiting case (ii-b). (ii) Correlations between spectroscopy and electrochemistry The ruthenium polypyridine complexes are well suited for the study of correlations between electrochemical and spectroscopic properties [226-2401 134 E&l 1 E,/2(2) %/z(3) t Fig. 37. Schematic diagram showing pictorially the three reduction processes relevant to a discus&on of the correlation between spectroscopic and electrochemical properties in a Ru( LL’ ) unit. because a large number of such complexes can be reduced and oxidized in reversible one-electron steps (Table 3) and a wealth of information is available on absorption and emission spectra (Table 1). Relations of this type have been studied in both homoleptic and heteroleptic Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes. In the latter a very simple assignment of the absorption bands and of the reduction waves is often possible. When two polypyridine ligands which are sufficiently different in their redox behavior, such as biq and bpy, are present, generally dual MLCT absorption is observed, and the successive reduction waves can be assigned to a “localized” reduction in a single ligand (see, e.g., ref. 239). For Ru(LL)*(LL’)~+ complexes, where LL’ is the ligand easier to reduce, the relevant reduction potentials to establish the correlation between spectroscopy and electrochemistry are E1,2 (I), E42), and Eli2(3) [2331, which correspond to the following processes (Fig. 37) (W2W’)l 3+ + e- -+ [Ru2+(LL),(LL’)12* (78) G/2 (1) b3+ E1,2(2) [Ru2+(LL),(LL’)12+ + e- ---, [Ru~+(LL)~(LL’-)]~+ (79) E1,2(3) [Ru~+(LL)~(LL’)]~+ + e- -+ [Ru~+(LL)z(LL’-)]~+ (80) The values for E1,2(1) and E1,2(2) can usually be obtained, whereas E1,2( 3), which corresponds to reduction of LL’ in the Ru3+ field, is a quantity not directly measurable (for Ru(bpy)z+ , it is estimated to be - 0.8 V vs. SCE in acetonitrile [2333).

Th e regression has been performed using the same orbitals that are involved in the electrochemical processes and the entropy difference between ground and excited state is negligible, the O-O triplet excited state energy is given by h%I(T) = e[ Et,,(L) - E,,,(3)] + XI(81) where X, is the triplet charge transfer interaction energy. The structure of LL’ largely determines the electrochemical and spectroscopic properties of Ru-polypyridine complexes. Figure 38, for example, reports the first reduction potential, E1,2(2), of some Ru(LL’)g+ or Ru(LL)~(LL’)~+ complexes compared with that of the free hgand, E1,2(LL’) [240]. The good correlation (with the exception of two complexes, vide infra) indicates that the reduction of the complexes involves a “spatially isolated” v *(LL’) ligand orbital (Section D (iii)) which largely resembles the free ligand orbital. Furthermore, u-donor and ?r*-acceptor properties of the ligands are expected to affect the oxidation process (removal of an electron from a metal d orbital). Stronger a-donor ability (higher pK,) results in lower formal charge of Ru2* and consequently in a lower oxidation potential of the complex [224,230,232,234,241]. On the other hand, A-72 * interaction causes a certain amount of d-orbital stabilization (and m* orbital destabilization) which may lead to a higher oxidation potential. Substituent effects on the oxidation potential of Ru(bpy)$+ derivatives have been systematically investigated [224]. E1,2(3) is related to E1,2(2) by the following equation: Er12 (3) = G/2 (2) + (a’ - 0 032) 136 where a! and S ’ are potential terms which take into account the energy changes due to changes in charge repulsion (a) and solvation (S) on passing from Ru3+ to Ru2+ fields. Substitution of eqn. (82) into eqn. (81) yields hv,(T) = A&,, - (ar - S) + X, (83) where A EI,z is the so called “redox energy”, given by A&,2 = e [ El,2 (1) - El,2 m] (84) The term (cy - S) is estimated to be 0.5 eV in Ru(bpy)G+ Equation (83) gives rise to eqn. (85) /W&~(T) = AE,,, -((Y-.SS)+X~-A(~Y)~ [233]. (85) where A( hv), takes into account the distortion energy for the triplet state. As can be seen, the linearity between hz~&““,and A E1,2 depends on the constancy of ((x - S), Xr and A( hv), along a Ru-polypyridine series. For the lowest excited singlet state hv,(S) -/W,(T) = 2K+ X, - X, (86) where K is the exchange energy and Xs is the singlet interaction energy. Equation (87) then follows, where A( hv), takes into account the distortion energy for the singlet state: &n,abs-- AE,,, - (a - S) + 2K-k X, - XT + A(hv)s (87) Typical values for Ru(bpy) 3_ n(LL) i’ complexes are: A( hv), = A( hv) r = 0.1 eV; K = 0.1 eV; X, = 0.3 eV [233]. A different approach [236,237,242], based on the use of a free energy diagram relating optical (absorption) energies and electrochemical quantities, leads to eqn. (88) : hv,“b = AE,/, + Q + AAGs + A(so~) + Xi + X0 (88) where xi and x0 are the inner (vibrational) and outer (solvation) reorganization energies in going from the ground to the excited state related to A( hv) s, Q is the energy required for the gas phase process M(LL)3+ + M(LL)+ j M(LL)2+ + * M(LL)2+, AAG, includes the free energy changes due to the different solvation of the ground state compared to its oxidized and reduced forms, and A(so1) includes the solvation free energy of the ground and excited state species. Equation (88) has been used to obtain values of x0 for Ru --, LL and Ru - LL’ transitions in the Ru(bpy) 2(LL’)2+ and Ru(bpy)(LL’)s+ series [236]. Equations (87) and (88) and eqn. (85) can be written as eqns. (89) and 137 li slope - 1.09 = 0.83 = 0.98 D ’ I I 2.4 2.8 AE,/, , , ev Fig. 39.

The coefficients are: a = 1.09, A = - 0.05 eV; b = 0.83, B = -0.18 eV. Generally, b is found to be significantly lower than unity [232,238], which may be taken as an indication that the d - T * single configuration description is an approximation not fully valid for the case of emission. As discussed above, the correlation between spectroscopy and electrochemistry lies on the assumption that the “spatially isolated” ‘1~* acceptor orbital is the same both for the reduction process and the CT transition resulting in the ligand localized excited state. Furthermore, correlations can also be expected between the reduction potentials of the coordinated and free ligand, because the same m* lowest unoccupied molecular orbital 138 I -11 LllMO energy, eV Fig. 40. Correlations of the reduction potential of the free l&and (a) and of the correspondent ruthenium complex (b) with the LUMO energy of the free ligand [240]. For identification of complexes, see caption of Fig. 38. (LUMO) is involved. Extended Huckel (EH) MO calculations on a series of unsubstituted ligands have been performed 12401 with the aim of studying the effect of increasing conjugation on the spectroscopic and electrochemical properties. Figure 40(a) shows that E,,,(LL’) is correlated, as expected, with the calculated ligand LWMO energy. As seen above, the plot of E,,,(2) vs. E,,,(LL’) also results in a linear relation (Fig. 38) except for complexes containing the ligands taphen [136] and DP [243]. Similarly, the plot of (Fig. 40(b)) exhibits deviations for complexes containing E1,2(2) vs- %“MO taphen and DP. Explanation for these deviations have recently been discussed [240]. (iii) Localization and deloca Zization problems The problem of the localization or delocalization of the excitation is concerned with the description of the excited state * Ru(LL)i+ as [Ru~+(LL)~(LL+)]*+ or as [Ru~+(LL-~/~)~~*~. The former case corresponds to a situation in which the promoted electron resides for a certain amount of time on a single ligand (Fig. 15(b)). The latter case describes a situation in which either the electron is completely shared by the three 139 Fig. 41. Energy level scheme ( D3 symmetry) in the e.i.c. model [ill] for the MLCT states responsible for the emission of Ru(LL)$ + complexes. The energy separation between the A, and E and A, and A2 states is of the order of 10 cm-’ and 50 cm-‘, respectively, in RNbpy) $ + . ligands or it undergoes hopping from ligand to ligand faster than the resolution time of the monitoring technique (Fig. 15(a)). Models concerned with the excited state structure of Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes have to take into account a very large body of literature [50,65-67,69,71-74,93,98,99,102,107-111,123,141,211,244-314]. The reference model of delocalization, as derived from studies of luminescence, is the electron-ion coupling (e.i.c.) model [107-111,123]. This model leads to a description of the lowest energy d + VT* configurations as a set of three levels. The promoted electron resides in an orbital ( a2 in OS symmetry) based on the lowest antibonding orbitals, Gcli,of each ligand and encompassing the three ligands: In this model the ligand-ligand overlap is explicitly disregarded and the exchange interaction between the excited electron and the electrons remaining in the d5 core is held responsible for the splitting among the energy levels (scheme shown in Fig. 41). Infinite separation of the promoted electron and the metal core would result in a fourfold degenerate state. The e.i.c. model was also proposed to describe mixed-ligand chelates like Ru(bpy), (phen) $?, [II l] by assuming an electronic symmetry ( OS) higher than that of the molecular structure. The localized description assumes C,, symmetry for the hypothetical Ru-LL unit [245,263] (Fig. 42). Complete localization, i.e. excitation localized on decoupled ligands throughout the lifetime of the emitting species, seems unlikely because in this case both the emission spectrum and lifetime of mixed ligand complexes should exhibit dual behavior [257,268], as found for Rh(bpy), (phen): ?, complexes [111,249], that is not actually observed for the Ru complexes [274,275,315]. A simple treatment for the charge transfer transition intensities can be based on the localized fragment of Fig. 42. Here, the interaction between the 140 @ 4. = ‘. -n;;.(b,) tzg w--. LL P _L .

From group theoretical considerations the d ---, VT * transition for the localized fragment is polarized along the C, axis, that is in the direction of the charge transfer from the metal to the ligand, In this case, the transition moment jX is mainly due to the transfer term [245,263] F=cqS (95) where q is the electronic charge and % is the position vector of the ligand center. On these grounds, for a Ru(LL) z’ complex (D, symmetry) one should expect that transitions polarized along the individual C, axes do not provide intensity parallel to the C, axis. This is only partly consistent with the absorption spectrum of Ru(bpy)g+ observed in host single crystals at 8 K 12591 which is mainly polarized in the direction perpendicular to the C, axis but is also entangled by a weaker component polarized parallel to C,. 141 I 400 500 x ,nm 600 Fig. 43. Absorption spectra in alcoholic solution at room temperature of Ru(bpy)z+ Ru(bpy)2(biq)2+ (b), and Ru(biq);+ (c) [128]. (a), The prediction of separate charge transfer bands based on the localized model is verified for the charge transfer absorption spectra of complexes containing non-equivalent ligands. For example, in Ru(bpy),(biq)zT, and other mixed ligand complexes ([128,274], Fig. 43) two well separated MLCT bands have been observed, the lower energy one corresponding to promotion of the electron to the ligand easier to reduce. However, even a delocalized model including weak interligand coupling [263] predicts that the MLCT absorption in trischelated complexes should indeed be characterized by two distinct absorption bands. The electronic spectrum of Ru(bpy) z’ in host single crystals at 8 K has been interpreted according to D3 symmetry 12591. Two spin-allowed transitions perpendicular to the C, axis were described as involving ligand Gorbitals of + and x origin. Polarized emission of [Ru(bpy),](PF,), single- crystals was observed in the temperature range 243-343 K by exciting at 488 nm @th E IIc (C, axis) [282]. The emission was found to occur mai$y with E J_ c, but a red-shifted activated emission (E = 650 cm-‘) with E IIc was also found. In the frame of D3 symmetry the main emission was ascribed to E states while the red-shifted emission was ascribed to an A, state. Similar results were obtained extending the explored temperature to the 1.6 - 300 IS range [286]. On the basis of the temperature dependence studies of the polarized emission spectrum an energy ordering for the lowest energy excited states ( D3 symmetry) was proposed that includes up to five states in a 800 cm-l range. 142 The analogy between the singly-reduced species, which has been observed by spectra-electrochemical measurements and described as [Ru2’(bpy) 2 (bpy-)]+ (Section A (vii)) [71,72,93,289] and the excited species [ * Ru3+2f helps in modeling the excited state potential curves for the (bpy) ,(bpy- )I localized case [65,66]. One gross feature should be the presence of potential barriers for the transfer of the electron from ligand to ligand. A model based on Franck-Condon overlap between the trigonal ground state and the three equivalent asymmetric excited states has led to three minima as in the case of the reduced complex [289]. Therefore, the excited state potential energy profile could be used for the same parameters found for the singly-reduced species by temperature dependent ESR studies, i.e. the electron hopping should experience a barrier of about 700-1000 cm-’ depending on the solvent employed 167,691. Concerning the spin properties, on the basis of the high efficiency of energy transfer from the luminescent * Ru(bpy)z+ excited state to dyes with formation of excited singlet dyes it has been suggested that * Ru(bpy)$+ has a great deal of singlet character [51]. However, the singlet character of each of the three low-lying MLCT levels should not exceed 10% according to a recent electronic model [50] for the interpretation of absorption spectra of M(bpy) ; + complexes (M = Fe, Ru, OS). In an attempt to establish a symmetry labelling and energy ordering of the lowest excited states, both D, and C, symmetry sites have been examined [316]. Four states can be predicted to lie at low energy in a localized MLCT configuration for Ru and OS complexes, three of them being closely spaced ( < 200 cm-‘) and the fourth occurring several hundred to higher energy [284]. Molecular orbital calculations performed for cm-l Ru( LL) $+ complexes in the frame of trigonal symmetry and using multiple scattering Xa and EH models satisfactorily compare with the known lowtemperature single crystal absorption spectrum of Ru(bpy):+ [264]. The assignment of the MLCT transitions occurring at 21500 and 23 400 cm-’ was based on the involvement of the lowest antibonding + orbital of the ligands, since the ligand x orbital lies at much higher energy (see Section A (vi)). Interpretation of the CD spectrum of Ru(bpy)g+ as resolved into many components based on the lowest energy 4 orbital has led to the same conclusions [2621. Photoselection studies on Ru(bpy) i + and related complexes indicate that the emitting state is localized on a single ring [255,269] and temperature and dependent data suggest that both intermolecular (solvent-solute) intramolecular mechanisms are active in single ligand localization of the excitation for Ru(bpy)z+ and Ru(phen)z+ [290,314]. Other studies basically employing absorption or luminescence spectroscopy [271,272,294,295,304] have tried to elucidate the localization prob- 143 lem, also with special emphasis on viscosity dependent relaxation effects [132,293,303,305,306,310,311]. Studies based on resonance Raman spectroscopy have provided evidence for localization of the excitation both in mixed ligand complexes and in complexes containing equivalent ligands [74,102,253,299,307]. Time resolved resonance Raman (TR3) studies of Ru(bpy);+ and related complexes have given evidence for a single ligand localized excited state on the time scale of molecular vibrations. It was argued that the localized species is present in solution within a maximum of 1 ns after the excitation [102]. Similar conclusions were reached by means of resonance Raman spectroscopy of mixed ligand complexes. It was found that on the time scale of the laser pulse (18 ns) the excited electron is localized on the ligand which is easier to reduce [ 3071. Detailed structural information can be obtained by the TR3 technique. Indeed high precision determination of an average equilibrium bond length displacement (of the order of 10 to 30 thousands of an tigstrom unit) between the ground and excited states for the bpy ligand in OS and Ru complexes has been reported [211]. These results are in a very good agreement with those obtained from Franck-Condon analysis of the vibrational progression observed in absorption and emission spectra. Evidence for localization also comes from shifts in absorption spectra as a function of the solvent polarity, which have been interpreted as due to instantaneous sensing of the formation of the dipolar excited state and from excited state absorption spectra [M3+O-vyMbw-)12+ [9f% [99-1011. As can be seen, the available experimental results indicate that, in fluid solution and on the time scale of vibration relaxation, the emitting excited state of Ru(bpy)i+ and related complexes is best described as based on a single chelate ring localized orbital (Fig. 15(b)). A small amount of interligand interaction provides delocalization of the excitation on longer time scales. Upper limit value for the rate of transfer of the excitation can be estimated as follows. According to Foerster 12441 an electronic interaction, p, can be classified as very strong if the resulting transfer rate, w(t), between equivalent electronic systems (i.e., ligands) is faster than the rate of vibrational relaxation. In this case eqn. (96) holds w(t) = 4&‘h (96) As the rate constant for vibrational relaxation is about 1013 s-l, a v&e of fl slightly higher than 200 cm-l induces strong coupling behavior. In such a case, different emission spectra for complexes containing the Ru(bpy)2‘t and Ru(bpy) : + emitting units should be observed. As the same spectra have been found for the series of mixed-ligand Ru(bpy),(i-biq) z?, complexes x ,nm Fig. 44. Emission spectra in nitriie solution at 84 K of Ru(bpy)z+ and Ru(bpy)(i-biq)$+ (c) [131]. (a), Ru(bpy)2(i-biq)2+ (b), containing the spectator i-biq ligand (Fig. 44) [131], it must be concluded that w(t) c 1Ol3 s-l and that thermal equilibrium, i.e. vibrational relaxation inside the Ru(bpy) unit, is established before the transfer of excitation occurs. It is interesting to note that, in the case of strong interaction between non-equivalent electronic systems (i.e. ligands), the transfer rate is given by eqn. (97) 12471 w(t) = (4/3/h)/@ + A2/4p2)1’2 (97) where A can be taken as the energy separation between the accepting orbitals of the two ligands. When A > j3, the transfer rate of excitation is strongly reduced compared to the case of eqn. (96) for equivalent ligands. It is therefore expected that complexes of the type Ru(LL) n(LL’) z? n will exhibit a “weaker” behavior with respect to Ru(LL) $ + or Ru(LL’) <’ complexes. The nature of the electronic interaction responsible for the interligand transfer of the excitation is still not well defined. A through bond interaction requires involvement of metal d orbitals as for the e.i.c. model. A through space interaction [248] should not be disregarded when large size ligands 145 that exhibit reciprocal steric hindrance (i.e., that ‘touch’ each other) are present. Thus, it has been suggested that in complexes containing biq and DMCH ligands the interligand interaction may produce detectable effects on the emission spectra [ 128,132]. E. COLLECTION OF SPECTROSCOPIC, PHYSICAL DATA REDOX, PHOTOCHEMICAL, AND PHOTO- In this Section we have collected data on ground and excited state properties of Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes. Table 1 summarizes the spectroscopic and photophysical data, Table 2 the photochemical properties, and Table 3 the electrochemical data. Abbreviations and structural formulae of the ligands are shown in the Appendix. For the sake of convenience, all the polypyridine and polypyridine-like ligands and some other ligands have been numbered. In the Tables, the first four columns contain these numbers or abbreviations to facilitate a search based on the coordination sphere. One example of a proper use of the Tables is as follows. To find the complexes containing the 4,4’-dimethyl2,2’-bipyridine ligand, one should first look at the structural formulae in Table A2, where number 15 is assigned to this ligand. Scanning the first columns of the Tables this number is easily found. The abbreviations for solvents, electrodes, etc., are explained in Table A3. The figures given in the Tables are usually those reported in the original papers. Such data should be used with caution because, as in our experience, the experimental errors in quantum yields, lifetimes, and redox potentials are seldom smaller than 20%, 10% and 10 mV, respectively. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We are deeply indebted to Mr. G. Gubellini for his skill in drawing the figures. We also thank Mr. V. Cacciari and Mr. Ph. Jolliet for technical assistance.
