SYNTHESIS AND PHOTOPHYSICS OF ORGANOGOLD COMPLEXES BEARING EITHER A BENZOTHIAZOLE FLUORENYL OR DIPHENYL AMINO FLUORENYL MOIETY: A STUDY IN STRUCTURE-PROPERTY RELATIONSHIPS

Mihaly, Joseph J

Abstract Details

2020, Doctor of Philosophy, Case Western Reserve University, Chemistry.
This dissertation describes the synthesis, photophysics, and computations for a library gold(I)/(III) organometallics bearing either a benzothiazole fluorenyl (BTF) or diphenyl amino fluorenyl (DPA) moiety. Three different series of gold(I) BTF complexes were synthesized with variation in ancillary ligand, gold-chromophore linkage, and number of metal centers. It was found that all three of these parameters have an effect on photophysical properties and excited-state dynamics. Computations support the observed photophysical phenomena for those complexes. Gold(I) complexes bearing the DPA moiety were isolated and photophysical analyzed. Both ancillary ligand, gold-chromophore linkage, and amine capping moiety were found to have an effect on absorption and emission properties. Lastly, gold(III) complexes bearing either the DPA or BTF moiety were isolated and photophysical analyzed. The effect of both capping moiety, gold- chromophore linkage, and oxidation state on photophysical properties is drawn. Overall, structure- property relationships for gold organometallics concerning oxidation state, ancillary ligand, gold- chromophore linkage, and capping moiety are discussed.
