| Research Abstract |
Rhodium(I) complex changes its color from purple to colorless when it reacts with hydrogen gas. Laser photolysis revealed that the reaction rate of [Rh(bpy)_2]^+ (bpy=2,2'-bipyridine) into [Rh(bpy)_2H_2]^+ was about 1μs. H_2 elimination of [Rh(bpy)_2H_2]^- by photoirradiation underwent within 10ns of the laser pulse. It is concluded that the rhodium complexes have a capability of hydrogen storage device. The reversible hydrogen capture-release reaction was observed even in the solid state ; the purple color of [Rh(bpy)_2]ClO_4 appeared by photoirradiation of pale yellow powder of [Rh(bpy)_2H2_]ClO_4. We observed similar color-change of other complex solids like the rhodium complex. For example, [Ru(dbb)_2(CN)_2] (bdd=4,4'-di-t-Bu-2,2'-bipyridine) changes its color and luminescence color by exposure to moisture and VOC (volatile organic compound) vapor. [Pt(dpb)Cl] solid shows orange luminescence by sorption of VOC gas.
