Articles Using tris 1 10 phenanthroline cobalt iii

American Elements manufactures numerous organometallic compounds including tris(1,10-phenanthroline)cobalt (hexafluorophosphate) that is used as a hole conductor p-dopant for dye sensitized solar cells. Other cobalt containing materials that we offer include cobalt(II) phthalocyanine, hexaaquacobaltate, trioxalatocobaltate, and tricarbonatocobaltate. These compounds are useful reagents, catalysts, and precursor materials for industrial chemistry, organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, LED manufacturing and more.

1,10-phenanthroline (phen) is a classic chelating bidentate ligand for transition metal ions that has played a significant role in coordination chemistry [1]. Unlike its parent 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) and 2,2′,6”-terpyridine (tpy) systems, which allow for rotation about the nitrogen donor atoms linking the two heteroaromatic six-membered rings, phen is held tightly juxtaposed to form an electron-poor environment that is pre-organized for strong and entropically favoured metal binding. UV-Vis spectral properties and powder XRD analysis reveal that a complex of phen with Co(II) trifluoroacetate forms in a triclinic crystal system.
