Spectroscopic, electrochemical and density functional theory (DFT) methods have been employed to investigate a group of [Re(CO)(3)(HT)(phen)](+) complexes (phen=1,10-phenanthroline), and in particular the level of electronic communication between various hole-transporting (HT) ligands and the rhenium centre. Here, the HT ligand consists of a coordinating pyridine connected to dimethylaniline group through a single-, double- or triple-bond-connecting system. Electronic absorption, resonance Raman, and steady-state emission spectroscopy combined with life-time studies and DFT calculations suggest that multiple d pi(Re)->pi*(phen) metal-to-ligand charge transfers (MLCTs) exist for each complex, two of which significantly absorb at about 340 and 385 rim, and one that emits at approximately 540 nm. In the complexes containing more-conjugated HT ligands, non-emissive intraligand transitions (IL(HT)) exist with energies between the ground and MLCT excited states. ne overlap of these IL(HT) transitions and the absorbing MLCT of lowest energy deactivates emission resulting from about 385 nm excitation, and lowers the quantum yield and excited-state lifetimes of these complexes. Cyclic voltammetry experiments indicate that throughout the series investigated, the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of each complex is centred on the HT ligand, while the occupied molecular orbitals localised on the rhenium are lower in energy.
