Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of producing metal complexes.
- One class of oplo-electrical devices attracting increasing attention is that using a semiconducting organic material for light emission (an electroluminescent device) or as the active component of a photocell or photodetector (a "photovoltaic” device).
- the basic structure of these devices is a semiconducting organic layer sandwiched between a cathode for injecting or accepting negative charge carriers (electrons) and an anode for injecting or accepting positive charge carriers (holes) into the organic layer.
- organic light emitting device In an organic light emitting device (OLED), electrons and holes are injected into the semiconducting organic layer where they combine to generate excitons that undergo radiative decay.
- OLED organic light emitting device
- Various classes of organic light emitting materials are known, in particular: polymers such as poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (as disclosed in WO 90/13148), polyfluorenes and polyphenylenes; the class of materials known as small molecule materials such as (8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminium (“Alq3”) as disclosed in US 4,539,507; and the class of materials known as dendrimers as disclosed in WO 99/21935. These materials electroluminesce by radiative decay of singlet excitons (i.e.
- Symmetric complexes as used herein means complexes wherein all ligands attached to the metal are the same; “asymmetric complexes” as used herein means complexes wherein at least one of the ligands attached to the metal is differs from at least one other ligand attached to the metal.
- the invention provides a method of forming a metal complex of formula M(Ar 1 Ar 2 ) n L comprising the step of reacting a compound of formula (I) with a bidentate L:
- Ar 1 and Ar 2 are each independently an optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl; Ar'-Ar 2 forms at least one carbon-M bond by reaction of M with a carbanion of Ar'-Ar 2 ; L is a compound of formula Ar'-Ar 2 ; M is iridium, rhodium, platinum or palladium; Hal is a halogen; and n is a number from 1-3 having a value necessary to satisfy the valency of metal M,
- reaction characterised in that the reaction is performed in the presence of an enabling ligand that is capable of breaking the halogen bridge of the compound of formula (I).
- identity ligand is meant a ligand which, when present in a metal complex, is bound to the metal by two ligand-metal bonds. Each of the ligand-metal bonds may be a covalent or co-ordination bond.
- each Hal is bromine, chlorine or iodine, most preferably chlorine.
- a ⁇ -Ar 2 is phenylpyridine.
- Ar'-Ar 2 and L are the same. In a second embodiment, A ⁇ -Ar 2 and L are different.
- the enabling ligand is a monodentate ligand, more preferably a ligand selected from optionally substituted pyridine and triarylphosphine.
- the enabling ligand is a bidentate ligand of formula (lib):
- each R is independently selected from H or a substituent.
- each R is hydrogen.
- the ligand of formula (lib) is formed by treating a corresponding protonated compound with a metal-free base.
- the reaction is performed in a protic solvent, preferably ethylene glycol.
- the invention provides a method of forming a metal complex of formula M(Ar 1 Ar 2 ) n L comprising a first step of preparing a compound of formula (I) by reacting a compound of formula M(Hal) m with a compound of Ar'-Ar 2 and a second step according to the first aspect of the invention, wherein m is a number necessary to satisfy the valency of M, characterised in that the first and second steps are performed in a one- pot process.
- the invention provides a method of forming a metal complex comprising:
- Ar 1 and Ar 2 are each independently an optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl; Ar'-Ar 2 forms at least one carbon-M bond by reaction of M with a carbanion of A ⁇ -Ar 2 ; L is a compound of formula A ⁇ -Ar 2 ; M is iridium, rhodium, platinum or palladium; Hal is a halogen; m is a number from 2-8 and n is a number from 1-3, m and n each having a value necessary to satisfy the valency of metal M,
- the invention provides a method of forming a metal complex comprising the step of reacting a metal halide with a ligand of formula (Ma):
- each R is independently selected from hydrogen or a substituent.
- each R is hydrogen.
- reaction characterised in that the reaction is performed in the presence of a metal-free base of sufficient strength to deprotonate the compound of formula (lla).
- metal halide is meant a compound comprising at least two metal-halogen bonds, including compounds of formula M(Hal) x (L')y wherein M is a metal, Hal is a halogen, L' is a mono- or multi-dentate ligand, x is greater than or equal to 2, y is greater than or equal to 0, and x+y is a number necessary to satisfy the valency of M.
- metal halide as used in accordance with the third aspect of the invention also encompasses halide bridged dimers of metals.
- the present inventors have surprisingly found that it is possible to form various metal complexes by reaction of a halo-bridged dimer with a bidentate ligand L in the presence of the aforementioned enabling ligands whereas said metal complexes do not form when the enabling ligand is absent.
- use of these enabling ligands allows a broader range both of products (symmetric and asymmetric) and of reaction conditions.
- the formation of said metal complexes is made possible by the fact that the enabling ligand is capable of breaking the relatively stable halogen bridge of dimer (I) to form an a relatively reactive intermediate that is then capable of reacting with bidentate ligand Ar'- Ar 2 .
- the enabling ligand is a monodentate ligand L m (e.g. pyridine).
- the first step of the inventive process entails synthesis of the dihalo bridged dimer (I) as per the prior art.
- prior art syntheses entail separation of the dimer (I) and subsequent reaction with bidentate ligand L.
- the present inventors have surprisingly found that the final product (IV) may be formed by reacting the dimer (I) in situ with ligand L in the presence of monodentate ligand L m , i.e. without having to first separate dimer (I).
- reaction can also be performed as a "two-pot" process, for example wherein the dimer (I) is formed in a first, protic, solvent such as ethylene glycol and subsequently reacted in a second, aprotic, solvent such as dichloromethane.
- first, protic, solvent such as ethylene glycol
- second, aprotic, solvent such as dichloromethane
- certain bidentate ligands may be used as enabling ligands.

- the present inventors have devised a method of preparing metal complexes with ligands of formula (lib) which are formed by deprotonation of a compound of formula (I la) but which are substantially free of any metal impurities.
- complexes are prepared using a compound of formula (lla) and a metal-free base.
- the ligand of formula (lib) may be an enabling ligand as per the second embodiment or a reactive ligand that forms part of the end product as per the third embodiment of the invention.
- Ar'-Ar 2 and L may be the same or different.
- L is added in the final step of the reaction, however L may be included in the starting mixture with Ar 1 - Ar 2 , particularly if Ar'-Ar 2 and L are the same. If A ⁇ -Ar 2 and L are different then addition of L in the final step is preferred in order to produce a single asymmetric complex.
- Ar'-Ar 2 in compounds of formula III may be linked to metal M by a metal-nitrogen bond.
- Ar 1 and Ar 2 are preferably selected from the group consisting of optionally substituted phenyl and optionally substituted heteroaromatics comprising a 5 or 6 membered ring, either as a part of a monocyclic or fused ring system.
- Particularly preferred heteroaromatics ring systems are those comprising one or more oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen atoms.
- L is selected from the same group of compounds as A ⁇ -Ar 2 , i.e. those compounds that are incapable of breaking the halogen bridge.
- L and A ⁇ -Ar 2 may be the same (for production of a symmetric complex) or different (for production of an asymmetric complex). L must be capable of displacing the enabling ligand.
- Ligands capable of breaking the halogen bridge of the metal dimer are selected from monodentate ligands or certain bidentate ligands.
- Particularly preferred monodentate ligands are selected from the group consisting of optionally substituted phosphines, particularly triaryl- or trialkyl-phosphines, most preferably triphenylphosphine; optionally substituted electron rich 6-membered nitrogen containing heteroaromatics, preferably optionally substituted pyridine, diazines or triazines, most preferably pyridine.

- each pyridyl ring is optionally substituted and wherein two or more of said substituents may form an alicyclic or aromatic ring.
- all groups R are preferably H or CM O alkyl, more preferably H.
