Enantiopure Cycloiridiated Complexes Bearing a Pentahelicenic N-Heterocyclic Carbene and Displaying Long-Lived Circularly Polarized Phosphorescence
Abstract
A fused p-helical N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) system was prepared and examined through its diastereoiso-merically pure cycloiridiated complexes. The latter display light-green phosphorescence with unusually long lifetimes and circular polarization that depends on both the helical NHC P/M stereochemistry and the iridium D/L stereochemistry. These unprecedented features are attributed to extended p conjugation within the helical carbenic ligand and efficient helicene-NHC–Ir interaction.
