A synthetic route to expand the π system on 4,4'-disubstituted-2,2'-bipyridines is reported to develop a series of novel functionalized 2,2'-bipyridine ligands, which can be used in dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) applications. In the synthetic route, 4,4'-bis(chloromethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine (7) is the intermediate compound for the synthesis of compound 8 [4,4'-Bis(diethylmethylphosphonate)-2,2'-bipyridine]. Subsequently, compound 8 can be used to synthesize a series of functionalized bipyridines via the Horner-Emmons-Wadsworth reaction.
Synthetic procedure starting from 4,4'-bis(chloromethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine
· A solution of 4,4'-bis(chloromethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine (7) (2.6 g, 10.3 mmol) in triethylphosphite (50 ml) was heated to 160 °C overnight in a nitrogen atmosphere. After the excess P(OEt)3 was removed by evaporation, a brown oil remained. This crude product was then purified through column chromatography using SiO2 and a solvent mixture of EtOAc/MeOH in an 80:20 ratio, resulting in 4 g (85%) of compound 8 as a white solid.
· For the general procedure in synthesizing functionalized bipyridines, a solution containing 8 (1 g, 2.2 mmol) and the relevant benzaldehyde 21a-f (2.5 equivalents) in anhydrous DMF (50 ml) received solid t-BuOK (4 equivalents). A substantial precipitate formed within a few minutes. The mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature under nitrogen. Following the evaporation of DMF, 150 ml of MeOH was added to the mixture. It was sonicated for 2 minutes and then left to stand in the refrigerator for 1 hour before being filtered. The resulting solid was washed with small increments of cold MeOH and allowed to air dry, yielding pure compounds 22a-f.
Ruthenium (II) complexes of 2,2'-bipyridine ligands and their derivatives have attracted attention because of their photoinduced electron and energy transfer properties. This work introduces the synthesis of a series of metal-free 4,4'-dialkylaminomethyl-2,2'-bipyridine ligands and the corresponding ruthenium (II) complexes.
Synthesis of ligands and ruthenium (II) complexes
· The ligands 4,4'-dialkylaminomethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (3a, 3b, and 3c) were synthesized by refluxing dialkylamine with 4,4'-bis(chloromethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine in acetonitrile (CH3CN) in the presence of potassium carbonate (K2CO3). They were then purified using a silica column with a solvent mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane in a 1:1 ratio.
· Subsequently, three distinct types of ruthenium complexes featuring alkylaminomethyl-substituted bipyridyl ligands were created, specifically the homoleptic complexes [Ru(L)3]2+ (PF6-)2 (4a with L = 3a; 4b with L = 3b; and 4c with L = 3c). The synthesis of these complexes involved a 1:3 molar ratio of the relevant ruthenium(III) chloride precursor and the 4,4'-dialkylaminomethyl-2,2'-bipyridine ligand in absolute ethanol, refluxed under an argon atmosphere for approximately six hours. During the reaction, the violet solution transitioned to a more vivid red-orange, indicating the formation of the complexes.
