The absorption spectrum of viologen salts in a medium or low polar solvent is an essential feature that influences all its “chromic” applications, whether we are considering thermochromic, electrochromic, photochromic or chemochromic devices. The prediction by quantum chemical methods of such absorption bands, typically observed in the visible range and due to charge transfer (CT) phenomena, is a very challenging problem due to strong solvent effects influencing both the geometry and the electronic transitions. Here we present a computational protocol based on DFT to predict with very high accuracy the absorption maxima of the CT bands of a series of viologen salts in solvents of low and medium polarity. The calculations also allow a clear dissection of the solvent effects, direct and indirect, and orbital contributions to the CT band.

Cuprous Complex

Luminescent cuprous complexes are an important class of coordination compounds due to their relative abundance, low cost and ability to display excellent luminescence. The heteroleptic cuprous complex solvate rac-(acetonitrile-κN)(3-aminopyridine-κN)[2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-1,1′-binaphthyl-κ2 P,P′]copper(I) hexafluoridophosphate dichloromethane monosolvate, [Cu(C5H6N2)(C2H3N)(C44H32P2)]PF6·CH2Cl2, conventionally abbreviated as [Cu(3-PyNH2)(CH3CN)(BINAP)]PF6·CH2Cl2, (I), where BINAP and 3-PyNH2 represent 2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-1,1′-binaphthyl and 3-aminopyridine, respectively, is described. In this complex solvate, the asymmetric unit consists of a cocrystallized dichloromethane molecule, a hexafluoridophosphate anion and a complete racemic heteroleptic cuprous complex cation in which the cuprous centre, in a tetrahedral CuP2N2 coordination, is coordinated by two P atoms from the BINAP ligand, one N atom from the 3-PyNH2 ligand and another N atom from a coordinated acetonitrile molecule. The UV–Vis absorption and photoluminescence properties of this heteroleptic cuprous complex have been studied on polycrystalline powder samples, which had been verified by powder X-ray diffraction before recording the spectra. Time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations and a wavefunction analysis reveal that the orange–yellow phosphorescence emission should originate from intra-ligand (BINAP) charge transfer mixed with a little of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer 3(IL+ML)CT excited state.

A series of iridium (III) complexes (C^N)2Ir (Pic) (C^N = Phi (1), Ppi (2), Mpfpi (3), and Cpfpi (4) have been investigated theoretically to explore their electronic structures and spectroscopic properties. The calculate bond lengths of Ir-N and Ir-O in the ground state agree well with the corresponding experimental results. At the TD-DFT and PCM levels, 1-4 give rise to absorptions at 359, 360, 348, and 335 nm and phosphorescent emissions at 454 , 469, 441, and 425 nm, respectively. The transitions of 1-4 are all attributed to {[d (Ir)+π (C^N)][π*(C^N) or π*(Pic)]} charge transfer. It is shown that the emissions are significantly dominated by the metal participating in the frontier molecular orbitals and affected by the C^N ligands.

<div>We introduce a method (FrD-LVC) based on a fragment diabatization (FrD) for the parametrization of a Linear Vibronic Coupling (LVC) model suitable for studying the photophysics of multichromophore systems. In combination with effective quantum dynamics (QD) propagations with multilayer multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree (ML-MCTDH), the FrD-LVC approach gives access to the study of the competition between intra-chromophore decays, like those at conical intersections, and inter-chromophore processes, like exciton localization/delocalization and the involvement of charge transfer (CT) states. We used FrD-LVC parametrized with TD-DFT calculations, adopting either CAM-B3LYP or ωB97X-D functionals, to study the ultrafast photoexcited QD of a Guanine-Cytosine (GC) hydrogen bonded pair, within a Watson-Crick arrangement, considering up to 12 coupled diabatic electronic states and the effect of all the 99 vibrational coordinates. The bright excited states localized on C and, especially, on G are predicted to be strongly coupled to the G->C CT state which is efficiently and quickly populated after an excitation to any of the four lowest energy bright local excited states. Our QD simulations show that more than 80% of the excited population on G and ~50% of that on C decays to this CT state in less than 50 fs. We investigate the role of vibronic effects in the population of the CT state and show it depends mainly on its large reorganization energy so that it can occur even when it is significantly less stable than the bright states in the Franck-Condon region. At the same time, we document that the formation of the GC pair almost suppresses the involvement of dark nπ* excited states in the photoactivated dynamics.</div>
