applications in catalysis [4,5], materials science [6,7] and biomedical imaging [8]. Since the first report of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) fabricated from tris(8-hydroxyquinolinolate)Al(III) (Alq3) in 1987 [9], metal chelate complexes have attracted considerable attention [10]. In recent years, the most promising candidates to substitute Alq3 were those of gallium [11]. Schiff base ligands and their metal/organometallic complexes have been extensively studied and a number of them show good luminescence properties [2,4]. There is analogy between the emission behavior of salicyldehyde Schiff bases and 8-hydroxyquinoline, since both the ligands have similar chromophoric groups i.e. a hydroxyl group, a coordinating imine N atom and a delocalized π-electron system [12]. Schiff bases derived from azo compounds constitute yet an interesting family of photo-chromic ligands [13]. 1

Luminescent behavior of organogallium [2,4,14,15] complexes has been reported in the past with an emphasis on alkylgallium (methyl or ethyl) derivatives, recently we have also reported photoluminescence properties of methyl-gallium complexes containing salicylaldimine Schiff bases [2,4,16,17]. In contrast to this, the arylgallium derivatives received scant attention. Interestingly the aryl

boron compounds like BODIPY (boron-dipyrromethene) derivatives containing an aryl-B linkages are promising luminescent material [18]. With this perspective it was considered to synthesize arylgallium complexes with azo-based Schiff base ligands and examine their photo-physical properties.

The absorptions bands due to Ga-C and Ga-O, which are absent in the IR spectra of the free

ligands appear at 579-592 and 529-541 cm-1 respectively for the complexes [2,4,19,20]. The absorption due to azomethine linkage (-CH=N-) and azo functional group (-N=N-) are shifted to lower wave numbers 5-8 cm-1, 14-25 cm-1 respectively with respect to that of free ligand on coordination of nitrogen atom to gallium. The 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectra, recorded in dmso-d6, displayed characteristic peaks with expected multiplicities for metal aryl and ligand fragment. The 13C NMR resonances due to –CH=Nin diaryl gallium complexes is deshielded by approximately 7 ppm from the respective resonance for the 2

free ligands, whereas 1H resonance due to –CH=N- is only slightly deshielded (~ 0.07 ppm) from the respective resonance for the free ligands.

[Ph2GaOC6H3(N=NPh)(CH=Ntol-4)] (2b) were established by single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Perspective drawings are depicited in Figs. 1 and 2, and selected interatomic parameters are given in Table 1. Various interatomic parameters in the two structures are essentially similar and can be compared

SC

with the analogous dimethylgallium derivatives [21]. However, the azo C-N bonds are marginally elongated while the azo N=N bond is slightly shortened in comparison to the analogous dimethylgallium complex [4]. This could be attributed to the presence of electron releasing phenyl groups on gallium. The

M AN U

Ga-C, Ga-O and Ga-N distances are in conformity with the values reported in the literature [2,4,22-23]. Gallium atom adopts a distorted tetrahedral configuration which is defined by two phenyl carbon atoms, a nitrogen and phenolate oxygen atom. The

six memebered Ga1-O1-C1-C2-C7-N1 rings in both

complexes are slighlty puckered with O1 out of plane by 0.105 and 0.143 Å, in 2a and 2b respectively. The terminal phenyl ring is twisted about the N=N with reference to the basal phenyl ring with an angle of 13.90° and 23.48°, in the respective complexes. The phenyl and tolyl fragments are differently

TE D

oriented with respect to the Schiff base fragment, making an interplanar angle of 88.88° and 47.5° in 2a and 2b respectively. This suggests that the substitent at the para- postion of the ring attached to azo group (N1) affects the planarity of the Schiff base fragment, which influences the luminicent properties of these complexes. This is evident from the observed trends in luminiscence properties of the complexes 2a, 2b

EP

and 2c.

2.3 Photo-physical properties

AC C

UV-Visible absorption spectra of all the ligands and their respective diarylgallium complexes

consist of mainly two peaks. For ligands these two peaks are mostly in the UV region and upon complexation they shift to near UV and visible region. These peaks can be attributed to the

π → π*

transitions in the aromatic ring and CH=N moiety for ligands. For complexes in addition to the above mentioned structural units, Ga-O related structural units also undergo absorption in the UV region. Complexation of ligands with trialkyl/triaryl gallium derivatives leads to overall increase in electron density in the ligand framework, subsequently the wavelength corresponding to absorption maxima get red shifted as is evident from Table 2. Unlike absorption spectra, emission spectra from the complexes are 3

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT

in the visible region (with wavelength maximum over a narrow range of 404-415nm) and are blue shifted with respect to that of the corresponding ligands. The emission in aryl derivatives showed pronounced blue shifting than the corresponding dimethylgallium complexes (Table 2). Emission in the blue region can be attributed to GaOx related centres in complexes. Even though ligand is excited upon exposure to

RI PT

UV light, the energy is transferred to the GaOx structural units which upon de-excitation leads to blue emission form the samples. This also explains the fact the emission maximum is not significantly affected by modifications/substitutions in the ligand moiety, however influenced by the substituent on gallium. It is worthwhile to mention here that blue emission from GaOx related structural units are well reported in many complexes and inorganic compounds [24]. Free ligands also undergo an important photo physical

SC

process known as excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), leading to large Stokes shift, in emission and excitation profiles (Table 2, Fig. 3). The process is hindered upon complexation and the

M AN U

Stoke shift values decreases accordingly (Table 2). Quantum yield of emission form the complexes are in the range of 4-8% and are higher than that of free ligands. A direct comparison of quantum yields of ligand and complexes are not appropriate here, as additional luminescent moiety based on GaOx structural units are present in the complexes which is absent in the case free ligands. The CIE (Commission internationale de l’éclairage) color co-ordinates (x, y) were calculated for ligands and complexes based on the emission spectra and a representative is shown in Fig. 4. The color coordinated (x, y) for ligands and

3.1 Materials and Physical Measurements

EP

All experiments involving organo-gallium compounds were carried out in anhydrous conditions under a nitrogen atmosphere using Schlenk techniques. Solvents were dried using standard methods. Triarylgallium dioxane (Ar3Ga.dioxane; Ar = Ph or tol) were prepared using gallium trichloride and

AC C

PhMgBr or tolMgBr in diethyl ether and later dioxane and benzene added to precipitate out excess magnesium halide and benzene extract was concentrated to give triarylgallium dioxane. Dioxane contents in each preparation were evaluated by 1H NMR integration [25]. The ligands, [5-(phenylazo)-N(aniline)salicylidene] (1a), [5-(phenylazo)-N-(p-toluidine)salicylidene] (1b) and [5-(phenylazo)-N-(pbromophenyl)salicylidene] (1c) were prepared according to literature procedures [26,27] and were characterized by NMR spectroscopy (Supplementary Material). Infrared spectra were recorded as KBr plates on a Jasco FT-IR 6100 spectrometer in the range 4000-400 cm-1. The NMR (1H and

13

C{1H}) spectra were recorded on a Bruker Avance-II 300 4

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT

spectrometer in 5 mm tubes as dmso-d6 solutions. Chemical shifts were referenced to internal dimethyl sulfoxide peak. Electronic spectra were recorded in dichloromethane on a UV-vis Jasco V-630 spectrophotometer. All luminescence measurements were carried out at room temperature using Edinburgh Instruments FLSP 920 system, having a 450W Xe lamp. Quantum yields were measured using

RI PT

an integrating sphere coated with BaSO4. All emission spectra were corrected for the detector response and excitation spectra for the lamp profile. Emission measurements were carried out with a resolution of 5 nm.

3.2 X-ray Crystallography

SC

Intensity data for [Ph2GaOC6H3(N=NPh)(CH=NPh)] (2a) and [Ph2GaOC6H3(N=NPh)(CH=Ntol4)] (2b) were collected at room temperature on a Rigaku AFC 7S diffractometer using graphite

monochromated Mo-Kα radiation (0.71069 Å). The structures were solved using direct methods [28] and refined by full matrix least square method [29] on F2 using data corrected for absorption effects using empirical procedures [30]. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically and hydrogen atoms were placed in their geometrically idealized positions with coordinate and thermal parameters riding on host atoms. The molecular structures are drawn using ORTEP [31]. Crystallographic and structural

Conclusion

Diarylgallium complexes derived from azo linked salicylaldimine Schiff base have been

M AN U

synthesized. These complexes emit in the blue region upon excitation of ligand moiety and the emission has been attributed to the presence of GaOx related centres in the complex. The quantum yields of the complexes are always higher than that for the corresponding ligands which can be explained based on lack of ESIPT in complexes.
