摘要

A novel ruthenium(II) complex of [Ru(bPY)(2)(iPiPH)](PF6)(2) (in which bpy = 2,2-bipyridine, ipipH = 2-(4-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl-imidazol[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline) was synthesized, and characterized using FT IR, H-1 NMR, UV-Vis, and ESI mass spectroscopic measurements. The equilibrium geometries, spectral properties, and metal-ligand interaction of the [Ru(bpy)(2)(ipipH)](2+) complex were investigated by density functional theory (DFT) and time -dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). Natural bonding orbital (NBO) analysis indicates that the electrostatic interaction dominates the metal-ligand interaction.
