The importance of finite temperature and vibrational sampling in the absorption spectrum of a nitro-functionalized Ru(ii) water oxidation catalyst
Consideration of finite temperature and vibrational motion can be an essential component for accurate simulations of absorption spectra. Here we use finite-temperature Wigner phase-space sampling to investigate the intense absorption of the water oxidation catalyst Ru(dppip-NO2) in the visible (vis) region. The influence of vibrational and torsional motions as well as temperature effects are addressed for the different protonation forms of the pH-sensitive dppip-NO2 ligand of the catalyst. Excitations to the nitrophenyl group and π-system of dppip-NO2, which characterize the absorption band in the equilibrium spectra, experience energy shifts and a significant decrease in oscillator strength when nuclear motion is considered. The importance of excitations to the nitrophenyl group for the vis band is reduced in the spectra computed from the 300 K ensembles, which feature broad distributions of the corresponding dihedral angles. The effects of vibrational sampling on the absorption spectra may be attributed to nitrophenyl and, in particular, to NO2 torsional motions. We expect finite temperature and vibrational sampling to be important for simulating the absorption spectra of other transition metal complexes with flexible ligands or nitro-aromatic motifs.
