Abstract

A parameter is reported by which to use 13C NMR chemical shifts to measure and predict the donor capabilities of N^N dipyrrinato and aza-dipyrrinato ligands chelating in L^X fashion. The results enable the rationalisation of the properties of these ligands and their complexes, as well as enable rational design incorporating both steric and electronic considerations when tuning to effect desired applications. Complexes containing these ligands are prevalent due to their desirable photophysical properties such as high chemical stability, resistance to photodegradation, strong absorbance, and ease of chemical modifiability.
