Abstract: Abstract of the thesis entitled DESIGN, SYNTHESIS AND FUNCTIONALIZATION OF LUMINESCENT ALKYNYLGOLD(I) COMPLEXES WITH π-CONJUGATED LIGANDS  FROM PHOTOPHYSICS TO SUPRAMOLECULAR ASSEMBLY Submitted by HONG Yau Hin for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in July 2015 A library of polynuclear thiophene-based alkynylgold(I) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and triphenylphosphine as the peripheral ligands, [R{(C≡C)Au(NHC)} ] (R = benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene, n = 2, 4; benzo[1,2- b:3,4-b':5,6-b'']trithiophene, n = 3; dithieno[3,2-b:2',3'-d]thiophene, n = 2; dithieno[3,2-e:2',3'-g](dibenzo[b, d]-thiophene), n = 2; 4-hexyl-4H-dithieno[3,2- b:2',3'-d]pyrrole, n = 4) and [R'{(C≡C)Au(PPh )}] (R' = benzo[1,2-b:4,5- 3 2 b']dithiophene), has been synthesized and characterized. The X-ray crystal structure of [BDT{(C≡C)Au(IHex)} -2,6] (BDT = benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene, IHex = 1,3-dihexylimidazol-2-ylidene) has been determined by X-ray crystallography. This class of complexes showed dual emissive behaviour and exhibited broad vibronic-structured emission bands in degassed dichloromethane solution at ambient temperature. As demonstrated by the temperature-dependent UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, some of the alkynylgold(I) complexes were shown to self-assemble in THFwater mixtures through a cooperative growth mechanism. Variation of the alkyl chain length on the NHC ligands not only has a significant effect on the morphologies of the aggregates, but also on the thermodynamic parameters of the self-assembly processes as revealed by the nucleationelongation model. Apart from the thiophene-based sulfur heterocycle-containing alkynylgold(I) system, a series of N-alkyl substituted triindole-based nitrogen heterocycle-containing trinuclear alkynylgold(I) complexes with isocyanide and NHCs as the peripheral ligands, [(TATI){(C≡C)Au(C≡N-R)}] (TATI = trialkyltriindole; R = 2,6-dimethoxyphenyl, 2,6-dimethylphenyl), and [(TATI){(C≡C)Au(NHC)}], has been prepared and characterized. The photophysical properties of the trinuclear alkynylgold(I) complexes have been examined. Their self-assembly properties have also been explored using TEM, SEM, DLS, H NMR spectroscopy, solvent-dependent and variable-temperature UV-vis absorption experiments. Some of the complexes have been demonstrated to possess spherical nanostructures in their THFwater dispersions. The self-assembly was believed to be mediated by the ππ stacking interactions of the central triindole moiety and governed by a cooperative growth mechanism. In addition, a novel class of amphiphilic phosphole-based phosphorus heterocycle-containing alkynylgold(I) complexes, [Au(C≡C-R){Ph-DBP(O)-  ] O(CH ) SO }]K (DBP = 5H-dibenzophosphole; R = phenyl, naphthyl, 2 3 3 phenanthrenyl, pyrenyl, perylenyl, 4-methoxyphenyl, 4-chlorophenyl) was designed and synthesized. The photophysical properties of this class of complexes have been studied. Some of the complexes were shown to display sheet-like nanostructures in aqueous DMSO solution. The self-assembly process was found to be governed by an isodesmic mechanism and mediated by hydrophobichydrophobic interactions between the alkynyl units. It has been shown that modulation of t

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled DESIGN, SYNTHESIS AND SPECTROSCOPIC STUDIES OF AMPHIPHILIC PLATINUM(II) COMPLEXES WITH TRIDENTATE N-DONOR LIGANDS - FROM SIMPLE MOLECULES TO SUPRAMOLECULAR ASSEMBLIES AND NANOSTRUCTURES Submitted by PO Charlotte for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in February 2014 Several series of amphiphilic platinum(II) complexes with tridentate N-donor ligands were synthesized and characterized. Their photophysical properties as well as the spectroscopic changes resulting from the supramolecular assemblies of the complexes were studied. Water-soluble platinum(II) bzimpy complexes have been shown to exhibit strong aggregation in water to give highly ordered nanostructures and by structural modification, various morphologies such as spherical and cylindrical micelles, vesicles and bilayer sheets were obtained. The differences in molecular packing and morphology have been found to give rise to an alteration of Pt---Pt interaction and hence a change in MMLCT absorption and MMLCT emission and such changes were utilized as a probe for the morphological transformation. - + Different hydrophilic groups of sulfonate (-SO ), trimethylammonium (-NMe ) and 3 3 triethylene glycol (TEG) were incorporated into the platinum(II) bzimpy complexes to render their water solubility. An interesting aggregation-partial deaggregation-aggregation process has been demonstrated by [Pt{bzimpy(PrSO ) }Cl]K and its alkynyl analogues via a change in the solvent 3 2 composition. A drastic rainbow-like color change from red to yellow to green and blue was observed via the increase in organic solvent content in the aqueous solution of [Pt{bzimpy(PrSO )}Cl]K. The color change and luminescence change were 3 2 monitored by UV-vis absorption and emission studies, and a change in the MMLCT absorption and emission due to the alteration in Pt---Pt interactions during the assembly and disassembly process was observed. Through microscopy studies, the spectroscopic changes were correlated to a morphological transformation from vesicle to rod. The degree of aggregation of the complexes with different hydrophilic groups was compared through their dimerization constant and the inferences of electrostatic interactions on assemblies were investigated through the modulation of salt content of the solution and via co-assembly studies of the highly charged complexes, [Pt{bzimpy(PrSO ) (OPrSO )}Cl]K and [Pt{bzimpy(C H -NMe ) }Cl]Cl . 3 2 3 2 10 20 3 2 3 Through the incorporation of hydrophilic alkynyl ligands, bolaamphiphilic complexes were also synthesized and their aggregation behavior in water was studied. The effect in tuning the hydrophobicity of the complexes was studied by varying the alkyl chain length of the sulfonate-pendant platinum(II) bzimpy (Pt{bzimpy(PrSO ) }) 3 2 complexes and an unexpected shift in the UV-vis absorption and emission was observed due to the formation of aggregates. The thermo-responsive behavior of a TEG-pendant alkynylplatinum(II) bzimpy complex, [Pt{bzimpy(TEG) }{C≡CC H - 2 6 3 (OC H )-3,5}]Cl, in aqueous solution was investigated and on increasing 12 25 2 temperature, a morphological transformation from bilayer sheet to spherical micelles was observed and a large hysteresis

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled DESIGN AND SYNTHESIS OF LUMINESCENT PLATINUM(II) AND GOLD(III) COMPLEXES WITH TRIDENTATE PINCER-TYPE LIGANDS - FROM COMPUTATIONAL STUDY TO EXPERIMENTS AND APPLICATION STUDIES Submitted by LAM Suk Hang for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in June 2015 Square planar platinum(II) and gold(III) complexes possess unique spectroscopic and photophysical properties which enable them as promising candidates for many applications such as optoelectronic devices and biological sensors. The understanding of the intrinsic properties of these complexes is therefore essential to optimize their performance as well as provide guidance on the molecular design for specific applications. This thesis aims to provide useful insights for the molecular design strategies with the aid of computational studies to tune the electronic properties of these complexes and electroluminescence studies in the fabrication of organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). Computational studies have been performed to inspect electronic structures and photophysical properties as well as their correlation with the nature of ancillary ligands in the platinum(II) complexes of 1,3-bis(N-alkylbenzimidazol-2′-yl)benzene, [Pt(bzimb)(C≡C-R)], 1,3-bis-hetero-azolylbenzenes, [Pt(N DEGREESC DEGREESN)(C≡C-R)], and pyridine-based N-heterocyclic carbene, [Pt(NHC)(C≡C-R)] . It was found that the emission of the arylalkynylplatinum(II) complexes with pyridine-based N-heterocyclic carbene ligand was originated from the triplet alkynyl-to-tridentate pincer ligand-to-ligand charge transfer excited state mixed with platinum-to-tridentate pincer metal-to-ligand charge transfer character, and the excited state energy was found to be red-shifted according to the increasing π electron-donating ability of the aryl group attached to the alkynyl ligand. On the other hand, the emission energies of the platinum(II) complexes of 1,3-bis(N-alkylbenzimidazol-2′-yl)benzene and 1,3-bis-hetero-azolylbenzenes were found to be dependent on the different electron-donating substituents on the pincer ligands. Calculations have also been performed on the representative alkynylplatinum(II) + + complexes [Pt(trpy)(C≡C-R)] (trpy = 2,2′ 6′,2′′-terpyridine), [Pt(bzimpy)(C≡C-R)] (bzimpy = 2,6-bis(N-alkylbenzimidazol-2′-yl)pyridine) and [Pt(bzimb)(C≡C-R)] as well as alkynylgold(III) complexes [Au(C DEGREESN DEGREESC)(C≡C-R)] (C DEGREESN DEGREESC = 2,6-diphenylpyridine), [Au{C(Np) DEGREESN DEGREESC(Np)}(C≡C-R)] (C(Np) DEGREESN DEGREESC(Np) = 2,6-di(2-naphthyl)pyridine) and [Au(N DEGREESN DEGREESN)(C≡C-R)] (N DEGREESN DEGREESN = 2,6-bis(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine) in order to have a better understanding on their nature of the emissive origins as well as the radiative and nonradiative processes. In particular, factors governing the ordering of the triplet excited states and radiative decay rate constants of the emissive state ( ES) have been examined. Their potential energy profiles for the deactivation process from the ES via triplet metal-centered states have also been explored. This study revealed for the first time the potential energy profiles for the thermal deactivation pathway of square planar platinum(II) and gold(III) complexes. In addition to the computational

Abstract: A number of cationic water-soluble alkynylplatinum(II) terpyridine complexes, [Pt(tpy){C≡CCH2OC6H3-(CH2OH)2-3,5}]OTf, [Pt(tBu3tpy){C≡CCH2OC6H3- (CH2OH)2-3,5}]Cl, [Pt(tpy){C≡CCH2OC6H4-(CH2OH)-4}]OTf, [Pt(tpy){C≡CC6H3- (CH2OH)2-3,5}]OTf, [Pt(tpy){C≡CC6H4-(CH2OH)-4}]OTf, [Pt(tpy)(C≡C－C≡CH)]OTf and [Pt(tpy){C≡CC6H4(CH2NMe3)-4}](OTf)2, have been synthesized. Phosphate anion derivatives of polyanionic nature, e.g. adenosine triphosphate and tyrosine-containing phosphopeptide, were employed to investigate the induced supramolecular helical assembly behaviors of several of the water-soluble platinum(II) complexes through the study of their UV-vis absorption, emission and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies. The extent of such induced self-aggregation properties has been shown to be dependent on the concentration of substrates and capable of screening their respective structurally similar analogues. Two of the complexes were further explored for their use as label-free detection probes for real-time monitoring of the conversion of these phosphate anion derivatives to their metabolic products catalyzed by several biologically important enzymes. Michaelis-Menten analyses have been performed to determine the kinetic parameters. Supramolecular self-assembly and disassembly behaviors of water-soluble platinum(II) complexes have also been explored for their sensing applications for biomacromolecules with quantitative analyses based on UV-vis, emission and CD spectral titration studies. Making use of the selective binding affinity of aptamers towards their target substrates, the extent of self-assembly of the platinum(II) complexes in the presence of lysozyme and thrombin, which arose from their electrostatic interactions with the negatively charged aptamers, could be modulated for the quantification of these substrates. The potential applicability of this probing strategy in real biological environment has been assessed. Other than that, CD spectroscopic studies revealed the formation of supramolecular helical assembly of the platinum(II) complexes upon electrostatic interaction with heparin. Such helical conformation of the heparin-complex mixture together with the distribution of the negatively charged functionalities on the heparin have endowed the complex with high differentiating power for screening possible interfering analogues. Insulin has also been employed as a template for inducing the self-assembly of the platinum(II) complex. Changes in negative surface charge distribution on insulin, brought about by its conformational changes upon conversion to insulin amyloid under destabilizing conditions, have resulted in different extent of induced self-assembly of the metal complex. Spectral changes of the platinum(II) complex has provided a convenient monitoring of insulin amyloid formation, with kinetic parameters determined.

Abstract: A series of alkynylplatinum(II) polypyridine complexes with 4,4′,4′′-tricarboxy-2,2′ 6′,2′′-terpyridine and 4,4′-dicarboxy-2,2′-bipyridine as TiO2 anchoring functionalities, has been successfully synthesized. Their photophysical, electrochemical and luminescence properties have been extensively studied. The excited state properties were probed using nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. [Pt(tctpy)(C≡C-Th-BTD-Th)][NnBu4]2 displayed a long-lived transient signal which was tentatively assigned to result from the formation of a charge-separated state, which could be alternatively described as a [Pt(tctpy) (C≡C-Th-BTD-Th)]?] state, with the charge recombination rate constant determined to be 2.9 105 s?1. The excited state redox potentials for the oxidation process were determined and the data confirmed the ability of the complexes to inject an electron into the conduction band of TiO2. The majority of the complexes were found to sensitize the nanocrystalline TiO2 and exhibit photovoltaic properties, which have been characterized by current-voltage measurements under illumination of air mass (AM) 1.5G sunlight (100 mW cm-2). A new class of molecular dyads comprising metalloporphyrin-linked alkynylplatinum(II) polypyridine complexes was synthesized and characterized. Their photophysical, electrochemical and luminescence properties have been studied in detail. The excited state properties were probed using nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy which indicated the formation of a charge-separated state involving the porphyrin radical anion, [Por －(C≡C)Pt]?]. The excited state redox potentials for the oxidation process were also determined with the data supporting the capability of the complexes to inject an electron into the conduction band of TiO2. The majority of the complexes were found to sensitize the nanocrystalline TiO2 and exhibit photovoltaic properties, as characterized by current-voltage measurements under illumination of air mass (AM) 1.5G sunlight (100 mW cm-2). A series of organic materials consisting of a triphenylamine-based donor with oligothiophene or oligothienylenevinylene based-conjugated linker and dicyanovinyl, tricyanovinyl or cyanacrylic acid groups as acceptor, was synthesized and characterized. Their photophysical, electrochemical, thermal and luminescence properties were studied. Transient absorption spectra of TPA-OTV-DCN in dichloromethane solution on the pico- to nanosecond timescale were recorded after femtosecond laser excitation at 400 nm. A transient signal at ca. 700 nm was tentatively assigned to result from the formation of a charge-separated [(TPA-OTV)] DCN ] state with the charge recombination rate constant determined to be 5.3 109 s?1. The energy levels of the LUMOs of TPA-OTV1-DCN, TPA-OTV2-DCN, TPA-OTV3-DCN TPA-TAZ1-DCN, TPA-TAZ2-DCN and TPA-o-4Th-DCN were calculated to be of ca. ?3.9 eV, establishing the formation of a downhill driving force for the energetically favorable electron transfer process involvi

Dinuclear and 3 6 5 6 trinuclear alkynylplatinum(II) terpyridyl complexes, [1,4- {Pt(trpy)C{ C} C H ](OTf), [1,4-{Pt( Bu trpy)C{ C} C H ](OTf), [2,5- 2 6 4 2 3 2 6 4 2 {Pt(trpy)C{ C} C H S](OTf), [2,5-{Pt( Bu trpy)C{ C} C H S](OTf) and [1,3,5- 2 4 2 2 3 2 4 2 2 {Pt( Bu trpy)C{ C} C H ](OTf) have been successfully synthesized. The X-ray 3 3 6 3 3t crystal structure of [1,4-{Pt( Bu trpy)C{ C} C H ](OTf) has also been 3 2 6 4 2 determined. The luminescence properties of these complexes have been studied and their lowest-lying excited states in fluid solution and in the glass state were tentatively assigned as admixture of MLCT [dS (Pt)ĺ S *(trpy)] and LLCT [S (C{ C)ĺ S *(trpy)] origin, whereas the low-energy emissions in the solid state were attributed to triplet metal metal-to-ligand charge transfer ( MMLCT) phosphorescence, resulting from significant Pt---Pt interactions in the solid state. Besides, a series of luminescent platinum(II) terpyridyl alkynyl complexes with different counter anions, [Pt(trpy)(C{ C C{ C H)]X (X = OTf, PF, ClO, 6 4 BF, BPh ), [Pt(trpy)(C{ C C H )]X (X = OTf, PF, ClO, BF ) and 4 4 6 5 6 4 4 complexes with various substituents on the alkynyl and terpyridyl ligands, [Pt(trpy)(C{ CC H OCH-4)]OTf, [Pt(4'-CH O trpy)(C{ C C H )]OTf, 6 4 3 3 6 5 [Pt( Bu trpy)(C{ C C{ CH)]OTf, [Pt(trpy)(C{ CC H {CH NMe }-4)](OTf), 3 6 4 2 3 2 [Pt(trpy)(C{ C C{ C CH NMe )](OTf) and [Pt(trpy)(C{ C C{ C CH OH)]OTf 2 3 2 2 have been synthesized and their photophysical properties have been stuided. The X-ray crystal structure of [Pt(trpy)(C{ C C H )]ClO and 6 5 4 [Pt( Bu trpy)(C{ C C{ C H)]OTf have been determined. The solid-state absorption and emission spectra showed low-energy bands, which were assigned as derived from MMLCT origin. Solvent-induced aggregation studies of these complexes in solution showed that the color of the aggregates could be very different for different counter-ions, indicating that counter-ions played an important role in governing the degree of aggregation and the extent of interactions within these aggregates. Addition of various anions to solutions of [Pt(trpy)(C{ C C{ C H)]X (X = OTf, PF ) produced anion-induced color 6changes upon solvent-induced aggregation, showing that these complexes might serve as potential colorimetric anion probes. The effect of temperature on the aggregation properties of the complexes has also been explored. New low-energy absorption and emission bands were found upon a reduction of temperature, attributable to the formation o
