The invention belongs to the field of
ruthenium complex preparation, and particularly discloses a
metal ruthenium complex containing a
tetraphenylethylene group and a preparation method thereof.The preparation method comprises the steps that 4-(1, 2, 2-
triphenylethylene)
benzaldehyde,
ammonium acetate and 1, 10-
phenanthroline-5, 6-
diketone are added into a reaction
bottle under the light shielding condition, then an excessive
acetic acid solution is added, and TM-1 is prepared through a reaction; adding
tris (
triphenylphosphine)
ruthenium dichloride (II) and TM-1 according to the
molar ratio of 1: 1.2, then adding excessive
chloroform solution, and reacting to prepare the
metal ruthenium complex TPE-Ru-3 containing the tetraphenyl
ethylene group. The preparation conditions are mild, the synthesis efficiency is high, and the product purity is high; the tetraphenyl
ethylene in the prepared
metal ruthenium complex TPE-Ru-3 containing the tetraphenyl
ethylene group is used as a conjugated group, and an MLCT (charge transfer coefficient)
absorption band capable of effectively performing
red shift on metal to a ligand is introduced, which means that the complex can absorb light with longer
wavelength (more deviated to a
red light region), so that more solar photons are captured, and the light capture efficiency is improved.
