Photoluminescent ruthenium( ii ) bipyridyl complexes containing phosphonium ylide ligands
Résumé
A P-ylide Ru(II) bipyridyl complex was readily synthetized and fully characterized, constituing one of the rare examples of photoluminescent metal ylide complexes. Its photophysical and redox properties have been compared with those of related NHC and cyclometalated Ru complexes and exploited in visible-light photocatalyzed SET and EnT processes.
