Based on benzo[i]dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (dppn) with photo-oxidation activity, complexes [Ir(pbt)2(dppn)]Cl (1) and [Ir(pt)2(dppn)]Cl (2) have been synthesized (pbtH = 2-phenylbenzothiazole, and ptH = 2-phenylthiazole), with two aims, including studying the influence of the cyclometalating ligands (pbt- in 1, pt- in 2) on the photo-oxidation activity of these complexes and exploring their photo-oxidation-induced luminescence. Both 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electrospray (ES) mass spectrometry indicate that the benzo[g]quinoxaline moiety in complex 1 can be oxidized at room temperature upon irradiation with 415 nm light. Thus, this complex in CH2Cl2 shows photo-oxidation-induced turn-on yellow luminescence. In contrast, complex 2 reveals significant structural decomposition during the process of photo-oxidation due to incorporating a cyclometalating ligand pt- instead of pbt- in complex 1. In this paper, we report the photo-oxidation behaviors and the related luminescence modulation in 1 and 2 and discuss the relationship between structure and photo-oxidation activity in these complexes.
