Resumen:
We present the photophysical properties of a family of cyanide-bridged ruthenium polipyridines, [(bpy)(tpy)Ru(µ-CN)Ru(bpy)2L]2+/3+ (tpy = 2,2?;6?,2??-terpyridine; bpy = 2,2?-bipyridine; L= acetonitrile (1, Fig. 1), 4- Dimethylaminopyridine (2), thiocyanate (3) or chloride (4). For comparison, we also present the behavior of the complex [(bpy)(tpy)Ru(µ-CN)Ru(py)4(Cl)]2+. Near infrared Transient absorption spectra of these complexes reveal that the first populate state present a band that we assign as a metal to metal charge transfer (MMCT) and indicates a mixed-valence character for this state (black and red spectra, Fig. 2). This transition shifts to the red as the L ligand becomes a better donor. By comparison with the properties of related mixed-valence complexes a delocalized nature can be assigned to the excited state of (4). It is interesting to note that the reverse tendency is observed for the ground state mixed-valence form of these complexes revealing the role of the radical-anion in the photoinduced state. For all complexes, the first populate state decays to the emissive state which does not present a transition in the NIR pointing to a different configuration for the latter (green spectra, Fig. 2).
