A novel rosarin di-Cu complex 2Cu-1 and a linear six-pyrrolic mono-copper complex 1Cu-1 were synthesized using rosarin as the ligand. The molecular conformations of these complexes were confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The optical study of 1Cu-1 indicated NIR-II absorption due to the long six-pyrrolic ligand and the ICT effect. The 2Cu-1 complex exhibited a very narrow electronic reduction-oxidation gap of 0.50 eV, attributed to the antiaromatic characteristics of the rosarin ring. The first HER study of the di-copper rosarin complex 2Cu-1 indicated that the multi-metal poly-pyrrolic complexes are promising molecular hydrogen evolution reaction catalysts.
以玫瑰红素为配体合成了一种新型玫瑰红素二铜配合物2Cu-1和一种线性六吡咯单铜配合物1Cu-1。这些配合物的分子构象通过X射线晶体学得到证实。对1Cu-1的光学研究表明,由于长的六吡咯配体和分子内电荷转移(ICT)效应,其具有近红外二区吸收。2Cu-1配合物表现出非常窄的0.50 eV的电子还原-氧化能隙,这归因于玫瑰红素环的反芳香特性。对二铜玫瑰红素配合物2Cu-1的首次析氢反应(HER)研究表明,多金属聚吡咯配合物是很有前景的分子析氢反应催化剂。
