Energy-Transfer from Tris(2,2’-Bipyridine)Ruthenium(II) or Tris(2,2’-Bipyridine)Osmium(II) to Hexacyanochromate(III) in a Pure Crystal of Double Complex Salt

Otsuka T, Takahashi N, Kaizu Y

It is clarified by performing X-ray structure analysis that the crystal structure of [Ru(bpy)(3)](2)[Cr(CN)(6)]Cl . 8H(2)O(bpy = 2,2’-bipyridine) is the same as that of [Os(bpy)(3)](2)[Cr(CN)(6)]Cl . 8H(2)O. The difference of energy transfer rate from [M(bpy)(3)](2+)(M=Ru2+ or Os2+) to [Cr(CN)(6)](3-) in pure crystals of double complex salts ([M(bpy)(3)](2)[Cr(CN)(6)]Cl . 8H(2)O) is discussed in terms of the spectroscopic characters and lifetimes of the salts.
