Abstract
Abstract A mononuclear rhenium(I) complex, fac-[Re(CO)3(bzch)Cl] (1), where bzch = 2-benzimidazole-4H-chromen-4-one, was isolated from the equimolar reaction between the Schiff base ligand 2-(2-aminophenyliminomethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (H2pch) and [Re(CO)5Cl]. The 1:2 molar ratio reactions between [Re(CO)5Cl] and N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-benzimidazole (Hbzp) afforded a dinuclear rhenium(I) compound, (μ-bzp)2[Re(CO)3]2 (2). These new rhenium(I) compounds were characterized by NMR, UV–vis, IR, and emission spectroscopy, as well as conductance measurements and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The emission spectra for 1 in dichloromethane were well-resolved and could be deconvoluted into three main bands. The emission spectra for 2 were red-shifted by > 140 nm and markedly broadened relative to those of 1.
