The series of osmium(II) complexes [Os(bpy)3−n(btz)n][PF6]2 (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridyl, btz = 1,1′-dibenzyl-4,4′-bi-1,2,3-triazolyl, 1n = 0, 2n = 1, 3n = 2, 4n = 3), have been prepared and characterised. The progressive replacement of bpy by btz leads to blue-shifted UV-visible electronic absorption spectra, indicative of btz perturbation of the successively destabilised bpy-centred LUMO. For 4, a dramatic blue-shift relative to the absorption profile for 3 is observed, indicative of the much higher energy LUMO of the btz ligand over that of bpy, mirroring previously reported data on analogous ruthenium(II) complexes. Unlike the previously reported ruthenium systems, heteroleptic complexes 2 and 3 display intense emission in the far-red/near-infrared (λmax = 724 and 713 nm respectively in aerated acetonitrile at RT) as a consequence of higher lying, and hence less thermally accessible, 3MC states. This assertion is supported by ground state DFT calculations which show that the dσ* orbitals of 1 to 4 are destabilised by between 0.60 and 0.79 eV relative to their Ru(II) analogues. The homoleptic complex 4 appears to display extremely weak room temperature emission, but on cooling to 77 K the complex exhibits highly intense blue emission with λmax 444 nm. As complexes 1 to 3 display room temperature luminescent emission and readily reversible Os(II)/(III) redox couples, light-emitting electrochemical cell (LEC) devices were fabricated. All LECs display electroluminescent emission in the deep-red/near-IR (λmax = 695 to 730 nm). Whilst devices based on 2 and 3 show inferior current density and luminance than LECs based on 1, the device utilising 3 shows the highest external quantum efficiency at 0.3%.
Complexes of Os(II) in particular have been of significant interest since the 1980s, with the photophysical properties of the parent complex of the family, Os(bpy)32+, having been described in detail and compared and contrasted to its well-known Ru(II) analogue.9–12 Subsequent work has predominantly centred around modification of the ligand set, for example, introducing other simple diimines such as 1,10-phenanthroline,9,13 terpyridines14–16 or dipyridophenazine (dppz)17,18 and also expanding the ligand architecture to permit coordination to more than one metal centre, thus giving access to a variety of novel homo- and heterometallic dimers14,19 and dendrimers.20,21 The appeal of using Os(II) lies primarily in the inherent ground and excited state stability of its polypyridyl complexes, reversible redox chemistry and broadly panchromatic optical absorption properties.20 This latter property is partially a consequence of the high spin–orbit coupling constant for Os permitting the occurrence of both spin-allowed 1MLCT and spin-forbidden direct 3MLCT electronic transitions.22 Furthermore, the 3MLCT states are frequently relatively long-lived23 and often undergo radiative deactivation through phosphorescent emission. Consequently, Os(II) complexes have been employed in applications ranging from emissive intercalating DNA probes17 to semi-conductor sensitisers24,25 and light-absorbing molecular antennae.21,26
Ligand systems based on the use of 1,2,3-triazoles as a replacement for pyridine donors have recently generated significant interest, where facile synthesis through so-called ‘click’ chemistry opens up many possibilities for readily tuneable photophysical properties.27–30 Several examples of Ir(III) complexes featuring 1,2,3-triazoles have been reported as colour tuneable emitters31–34 and further incorporated within light emitting devices.35–38
We and others have recently investigated 4,4′-bi-1,2,3-triazolyl (btz) ligands. For example, complexes of the form [Ir(apy)2(btz)]+, where apy is a 2-arylpyridine, were shown to be luminescent.33,39 Our group has also investigated the photophysics and photochemistry of ruthenium(II) btz complexes.40–43 Fletcher44 and Monkowius45 had previously shown homoleptic complexes of the type [Ru(btz)3]2+ to be non-emissive. We proceeded to prepare and characterise the series of complexes [Ru(bpy)3−n(btz)n]2+ (n = 1–3).40 Increasing btz content results in a blue-shift in the 1MLCT band with a very pronounced shift on going from n = 2 to n = 3. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicate that the LUMO of the btz ligand is approximately 1 eV higher than that of bpy, thus explaining the large shift in the MLCT band on replacement of the final bpy ligand. Time-dependent DFT data revealed that for the bpy-containing complexes in the series that the lowest triplet excited state was 3MLCT in nature. However, for [Ru(btz)3]2+ the S1 and T1 states were shown to have 3MC character. The narrowing of the 3MLCT–3MC gap in the heteroleptic complexes [Ru(bpy)2(btz)]2+ and [Ru(bpy)(btz)2]2+ also results in photochemical btz ligand ejection reactivity, which in the case of the latter complex proceeds with the observation of a highly stable ligand loss intermediate.41
Triazole-containing ligands therefore allow access to efficient phosphorescent complexes on the one hand but also to complexes displaying unique photochemical reactivity on the other. Further, whilst there are now numerous reports on the coordination chemistry and photophysical properties of 1,2,3-triazole complexes of ruthenium and other d6 metals, there is to our knowledge only one report of triazole coordination to osmium.46 The aforementioned dichotomous nature exhibited by triazole-containing complexes inspired us to investigate the osmium analogues of the previously studied ruthenium btz family of complexes and explore their electroluminescence properties when used in light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs). Since their discovery in 1996 by Pei,47 LECs have been investigated as potential inexpensive lighting devices due to their simplicity. In LECs, different materials such as conjugated polymers blended with ionic liquids, ionic dyes or organometallic complexes have been used as emitters. Nevertheless, due to the intrinsically higher photoluminescence efficiency of phosphorescent compounds, the most efficient LECs have been obtained using ionic transition metal complexes (iTMCs) as emitters.48–52 Commonly employed metal centres used in iTMC for LECs are Ir(III) and Ru(II), due to their high stability and efficient photoluminescence, whereas other transition metal complexes have been studied only on a very limited basis. Among these, Os(II) has been used in the preparation of phosphorescent emitters for LECs53–55 and for more common organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs).56 However, the application of Os(II) iTMCs in LECs has not yet been developed to its full potential.
We report here the synthesis and characterisation of the series of complexes [Os(bpy)3−n(btz)n]2+ (1n = 0; 2n = 1; 3n = 2; 4n = 3). We will show that in contrast to their ruthenium analogues that 1 to 3 are emissive at room temperature in the deep-red/near-infrared region of the spectrum. Further, these complexes have been used as phosphors in deep-red/near-infrared light-emitting electrochemical cells.
The synthesis of the second heteroleptic complex [Os(bpy)(btz)2]2+ (3) was initially attempted via a similar route to that of 2. [NH4]2[OsCl6] was reacted with two equivalents of btz to yield [Os(btz)2Cl2], with 1H NMR analysis revealing two inequivalent triazole rings within the ligand, indicating the successful isolation of the C2 symmetric intermediate. However, subsequent reaction with one equivalent of bpy proved unsuccessful, furnishing only a yellow/green compound, the 1H NMR spectrum of which contained only one set of btz resonances and no signals corresponding to bpy. The resemblance of this spectrum to that of [Os(btz)3]2+ (vide infra) and the obvious differences to that of the intermediate [Os(btz)2Cl2], allow us to speculate that ligand exchange may have occurred under these reaction conditions to give only a homoleptic product. Consequently, 3 was prepared via an alternative procedure making use of a bipyridine-containing intermediate (Scheme 1), a strategy which has been employed in our previous work concerning the synthesis of the Ru analogue of 3.40,41 Thus, refluxing [Os(η6-C6H6)(bpy)(Cl)][PF6] in ethanol/water with two equivalents of btz yields 3, which was isolated as a dark green powder as its hexafluorophosphate salt. The 1H NMR spectrum of 3 (Fig. S12†) exhibits a total of four resonances for the bpy ligand along with two sets of signals for the inequivalent triazole rings (δ 8.30, 8.33) and benzylic methylene environments (δ 5.47, 5.53) of the btz ligands, again consistent with a complex possessing C2 symmetry.
Whilst single crystals were successfully grown for complexes 2 and 3, these repeatedly proved to be unsuitable for the collection of satisfactory X-Ray diffraction data.
The homoleptic complex 4 may be readily prepared directly from [NH4]2[OsCl6] by heating to reflux in ethylene glycol in the presence of three equivalents of btz for 2 hours. However, it was found that this method repeatedly lead to the formation of small quantities of an additional Os complex, characterised by the presence of four broad resonances in the 1H NMR spectrum at δ 3.47, 6.32, 6.57 and 11.44, and by mass spectrometry as a mono-osmiated species with m/z = 894.18. As we were unable to either identify or separate this species, 4 was alternatively prepared in an analogous manner to that of 3. Briefly, [Os(η6-C6H6)(btz)(Cl)][PF6] was heated to reflux in ethanol/water with two further equivalents of btz, which in the presence of NaPF6 affords exclusively 4 as the hexafluorophosphate salt. The 1H NMR spectrum of 4 (Fig. S14†) is very simple, containing a singlet for the six triazole ring protons at δ 8.33 and a signal for the methylene protons of the btz benzyl substituents at δ 5.50. The remaining protons of the phenyl rings fall within a multiplet at δ 7.29–7.38, with the ortho protons being discernable as a separate resonance centred at δ 7.14. Despite numerous attempts, single crystals of 4 could not be successfully grown.
Cyclic voltammograms were recorded for complexes 1 to 4 and are presented in Fig. 1 with electrochemical data summarised in Table 1. All complexes show a reversible Os(II)/Os(III) oxidation process between +0.46 and +0.53 V vs. Fc+/Fc which undergoes a slight cathodic shift with increasing btz content within the ligand set. This shift to lower potential occurs as bpy is sequentially replaced by btz due to the weaker electron withdrawing ability of the latter and the resulting increase in electron density at the metal centre. The HOMO in 1 to 4 is therefore determined to be localised on the Os centre. For complex 2, a reversible bpy-centred reduction is observed at −1.76 V which is cathodically shifted by 0.13 V relative to the first reduction potential of 1, indicating destabilisation of the LUMO of the complex in agreement with the blue-shifted MLCT absorption maxima (vide infra). For 3, a reversible bpy-centred reduction is again observed centred at −1.90 V, cathodically shifted by a further 0.14 V relative to that of 2. For the homoleptic complex 4 no reduction potential is observed within the available electrochemical solvent window, indicative of the much higher energy LUMO of btz over that of bpy.

UV-visible electronic absorption spectra were recorded for all complexes in acetonitrile solutions (Fig. 2 and Table 2). The bpy-containing complexes 1 to 3 all show an intense bpy-centred π→π* based band centred around 290 nm which is seen to decrease in intensity as bpy ligands are sequentially replaced by btz. 1 displays further electronic transitions in the visible region, with those around 450 nm assigned as being 1MLCT in character, with bands of weaker intensity at wavelengths above 550 nm due to direct population of 3MLCT states as a consequence of the high spin–orbit coupling constant of Os.22,57 The visible region of the spectrum of 2 has a similar panchromatic absorption profile to that of 1, tailing off at ∼700 nm in which the MLCT bands are blue-shifted as the LUMO is destabilised on replacement of a bpy ligand by btz. Likewise, the 1,3MLCT bands observed for 3 are further blue shifted, with λmax at 429 and 450 nm for the 1MLCT band and the 3MLCT band seen to tail off around 650 nm. Spectra for 2 and 3 also show increased absorption in the region 320 to 350 nm which is assigned to btz-localised 1MLCT transitions.

The absorption spectrum of 4 is heavily blue-shifted compared to the other complexes, with 1,3MLCT based bands tailing off at 450 nm. A more intense band observed in the near-UV region with an absorption maximum at 320 nm is tentatively assigned as arising from overlapping 1MLCT/1LC transitions. This mirrors the behaviour exhibited by the corresponding ruthenium analogue [Ru(btz)3]2+ which has almost no absorption in the visible region of the spectrum.40
Complexes 1 to 3 are observed to be emissive at room temperature in aerated solutions of MeCN (Fig. 3 (top) and 4). The broad, featureless bands in the deep-red/near-infrared region are attributed to emissive states which are predominantly 3MLCT in character. In comparison, [Ru(bpy)2(btz)]2+ exhibits highly quenched emission compared to [Ru(bpy)3]2+, whilst no room temperature emission is observed for [Ru(bpy)(btz)2]2+ and [Ru(btz)3]2+.40 The enhancement in emission here is likely to be a consequence of higher energy 3MC states in 1 to 3 relative to their ruthenium(II) analogues due to the greater ligand field splitting and higher energy dσ* orbitals of the 5d metal centre (vide infra).
Complex 2 exhibits a broad emission band (λmax 724 nm) that is blue-shifted by 8 nm relative to that of 1, with that of 3 further shifted to higher energy with λmax at 713 nm. This shift to higher emission energy as bpy is sequentially replaced by btz is indicative of a destabilisation of the LUMO and a corresponding increase in the HOMO–LUMO energy gap across the series. This trend is in excellent agreement with the increase in HOMO–LUMO separation across 1–3 as measured by cyclic voltammetry and electronic absorption spectroscopy. (vide supra). Emission spectra were also recorded for 1–3 in dichloromethane (ESI†), with λmax (717–697 nm) displaying a small solvatochromic shift to higher energy consistent with a decrease in the polarity of the solvent.
Contrary to initial expectations based on the non-emissive properties of the analogous complex [Ru(btz)3]2+, 4 appears to be extremely weakly emissive in acetonitrile at room temperature with a band discernible above the noise at approximately 460 nm after removal of solvent Raman scattering signals (see ESI†). The complex is, however, intensely emissive in a 4:1 EtOH/MeOH glass at 77 K (Fig. 3 (bottom) & 4) and exhibits a structured band with maxima at 444, 474 and 495 nm. The low temperature emission profiles of 1 to 3 were also obtained in rigid EtOH/MeOH glasses at 77 K (Fig. 3, bottom). In each case the complexes exhibit structured emission bands where the emission maxima display the expected rigidochromic blue-shift relative to their solution state spectra with λmax lying between 673 and 706 nm. The trend in emission energy for 1–3 remains the same, being progressively shifted to higher energy with increasing btz content in the ligand set.
Luminescence lifetimes for the emission observed for 1–3 in aerated MeCN at room temperature were measured and are displayed in Table 2. These values are seen to increase across the series upon successive replacement of bpy ligands with btz from 38 to 66 ns, and also upon changing the polarity of the solvent with lifetimes from 73 to 123 ns being measured for 1–3 in aerated dichloromethane (ESI†). The increase in lifetime is a consequence of the gradual increase in HOMO–LUMO energy gap and corresponding destabilisation of the emissive 3MLCT state, as expected in accordance with the energy gap law.9,10
In order to complement our experimental studies we carried out computational DFT calculations on complexes 1 to 4. In the case of the btz-containing complexes the benzyl substituents were simplified to methyl groups. Plots of selected molecular orbitals and a comparative molecular orbital energy level diagram are provided in Fig. 5. In each case the HOMOs for the optimised ground state geometries of 1 to 4 are Os 5dz2 in character, which are destabilised by 0.27 to 0.35 eV compared to the corresponding 4dz2 orbitals of their ruthenium analogues. Due to the higher energy osmium-based HOMOs in 1 to 4 the HOMO–LUMO gap is reduced compared to the corresponding ruthenium series (3.11–4.27 eV versus 3.46–4.69 eV respectively) accounting for the significant red-shift that is observed in the optical absorption spectra.

For the bpy-containing complexes 1 to 3 the LUMO is localised on the bpy ligands, having π* character in the same manner as their ruthenium analogues. For the homoleptic complex 4 the LUMO is distributed equally over the three btz ligands. Progressing across the series both the HOMO and LUMO are destabilised (Table 3), more so for the latter resulting in an increased HOMO–LUMO energy gap in agreement with the experimental spectroscopic and electrochemical data; from complex 1 to 3 the HOMO–LUMO gap increases by 0.29 eV as bpy ligands are replaced by btz. Similarly to the analogous ruthenium series the HOMO–LUMO separation increases markedly by 0.87 eV upon going from 3 to 4 with the final replacement of bpy by btz necessitating the change from a bpy- to btz-localised LUMO.

---|---|---|---|---|
HOMO | −10.88 | −10.69 | −10.51 | −10.29 |
LUMO | −7.77 | −7.44 | −7.11 | −6.03 |
dσ* | −4.71 | −4.48 | −4.33 | −3.95 |
−4.71 | −4.43 | −4.10 | −3.95 |
The greater room temperature emission exhibited by 1 to 4 compared to the previously reported ruthenium series is proposed to stem from destabilisation of the 3MC states and hence the dσ* orbitals in the ground state. Plots of the dσ* orbitals of 1 to 4 are provided in Fig. 5. These appear as LUMO+13 & LUMO+14 for 1 and LUMO+10 & LUMO+11 for 4 and are destabilised by between 0.60 and 0.79 eV relative to those of their ruthenium analogues. The ground state energy separation between the LUMO and the dσ* orbitals decreases from 3.06 eV for 1 to 2.07 eV for 4 with the progressive destabilisation of the LUMO. This compares to a separation of 2.37 eV for [Ru(bpy)3]2+ and 1.27 eV for [Ru(btz)3]2+, which would therefore be expected to result in a significant increase in the 3MLCT–3MC state separation for the osmium series over their ruthenium analogues and account for the enhanced emission reported here.
Calculated absorption spectra from time-dependent DFT calculations are in good agreement with experimental spectra (see ESI†). Whilst the S1 states are all HOMO → LUMO 1MLCT in character these transitions are of low oscillator strength. The more intense transitions that give rise to the 1MLCT bands involve transitions between the HOMO−1 or HOMO−2 to LUMO, LUMO+1 or LUMO+2 orbitals.
Since complexes 1 to 3 show photoluminescence at room temperature and display readily reversible Os(II)/Os(III) redox behaviour, they were tested as phosphorescent emitters in double layer LECs. Devices were prepared by spin-coating pre-patterned ITO-glass substrates with an 80 nm thick PEDOT:PSS layer, in order to smooth the surface and increase the reproducibility of the devices. Subsequently, a layer of the phosphorescent complex was deposited from butanone (MEK) solutions, in the case of complexes 1 and 3, whereas acetonitrile was used to process complex 2. In order to reduce the turn-on time of the device, the ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate was added to the solutions in a molar ratio (complex:IL) of 4:1. Finally, an aluminium electrode was thermally evaporated onto the active layer. The characterisation of the LECs was carried out by applying a constant voltage (3 V) and monitoring the light output and the current over time. Under these conditions, a steady increase in the current and light output is typically observed as a consequence of the ion redistribution within the active layer. The ion drift reduces the barrier for charge injection and decreases the electrical resistance due to the formation of doped zones.59,60 The behaviour of complex 1 in LECs has been previously reported by Gao et al.,53 hence this complex was used here as a reference. The device characteristics are depicted in Fig. 6 and the corresponding parameters summarised in Table 4.

All the LECs exhibit deep-red or near-infrared electroluminescence (EL) with emission maxima located between 695 and 730 nm (Fig. 6, panel d). The EL spectra show a rigidochromic blue-shift with respect to the corresponding fluid solution photoluminescence spectra (Fig. 3), in good agreement with the emission observed at low temperature in rigid solution. As before, the increase in btz content upon moving from 1 to 3 is manifest in the shift of emission maxima to higher energy.
All LECs show the typical behaviour as described above, with different device responses being clearly observed dependent upon the identity of the active material. Differences in current vs. time profiles depend upon the ionic conductivity of the thin films and on the energy barrier for the injection of electrons or holes.61,62 In relation to 1, the time to reach the maximum light output (tmax) was found to be shorter for LECs based on complex 2 and longer for the LEC containing 3. Whilst these times do not reflect any appreciable trend across the series, the current density measured for each of the LECs varies substantially depending on the osmium complex, decreasing significantly upon the introduction of btz to the ligand set (1 to 2). In particular, LEC's containing 1 and 2 show a much higher current density and consequently more intense electroluminescence compared to devices based on 3. Interestingly, this trend in current density across the series of complexes is not commensurate with changes in overall device efficiency, with the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) being achieved for the LECs containing complex 3 (0.3%), found to be substantially higher in comparison to the reference complex 1 (0.06%). It is noted that the performance characteristics measured for our devices containing 1 are in good agreement with those previously reported by Gao et al. for LECs fabricated with the same phosphor.53
Monitoring the photoluminescence output for the LECs over time reveals the device lifetime to be detrimentally affected by the sequential substitution of bpy ligands with btz. In spite of the high current density measured for the LEC, complex 1 shows a lifetime (t1/2) in excess of 18 hours, whereas complexes 2 and 3 were found to have shorter lifetimes of 4.5 and 1.9 hours, respectively. As further in-depth analysis of the different device performance of 3 was not carried out, we reason that the difference in current measured for 3 with respect to 1 and 2 is an indication of a lighter doping in the thin film of 3, hence being less affected by exciton quenching.63
Despite the generally inferior device performance and brightness of LECs based on 2 and 3 the results are nonetheless encouraging for further phosphor development based on these architectures. During the fabrication of these devices problems were encountered for 2 due to crystallisation in the preparation of the active layer thin-films from MEK. These phosphors could therefore be modified through adding substituents onto the bpy ligands and through use of different substituents on the btz ligands in attempts to improve the stability and photoluminescence emission of the active layer, and consequentially, device performance.
Since the complexes are also phosphorescent in solution with excitation at 600 nm, the complexes may also be amenable to biological imaging applications in which auto-fluorescence can be negated. Here the CuAAC route to triazole-based ligand formation also lends itself to the inclusion of biologically relevant substituents within the ligand architecture for targeted cellular imaging.64 These and other possibilities are currently under investigation in our laboratory and results from these on-going studies will be published elsewhere in due course.
LECs have been prepared using complexes 1–3 that exhibit tuneable emission as a function of btz content within the ligand set. The electroluminescence of these devices ranges from deep-red to the near-infrared, being achievable at a low operating voltage. Whilst the introduction of triazole ligands was found to lead to an overall reduction in the current density and operational lifetime of the LECs, these results demonstrate the potential of Os(II) complexes as functional components within light-emitting devices where readily tuneable photoluminescence in the low energy region of the visible spectrum is desired.
