Based on the strand‐like coordination polymer (CP) type \(^{1}\)\(_{∞}\)[Ln(BSB)\(_{3}\)(py)\(_{2}\)], [BSB]−=bis‐salicylatoborate anion, mixed Eu/Tb‐containing compounds of the constitution \(^{1}\)\(_{∞}\)[Eu\(_{x}\)Tb\(_{1-x}\)(BSB)\(_{3}\)(py)\(_{2}\)] were synthesised ionothermally for a phase width of (x=0.25–0.75) and characterized regarding structure and optical properties. Previously, known only for other lanthanides, the mixed 1D−Eu/Tb‐CPs show excellent options for statistic replacement of the Ln‐cations during synthesis yielding solid solutions. The products are highly luminescent, with the chromaticity being a direct function of the amount of the respective Ln‐ions. Corresponding to an overall addition of emission intensities, the green Tb\(^{3+}\) emission and the red Eu\(^{3+}\) emission allow for a chromaticity control that also includes yellow emission. Control of the luminescence colour renders them suitable examples of the versatility of statistic replacement of metal ions in coordination chemistry. In addition, crystallization of [EMIm]\(_{2}\)[YCl\(_{5}\)(py)] illuminates possible other products of the ionothermal reactions of [EMIm][BSB] with LnCl\(_{3}\) constituted by components not being part of the main CPs.
Persistent room-temperature phosphorence from purely organic molecules and multi-component systems
(2021)
Recently, luminophores showing efficient room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) have gained tremendous interest due to their numerous applications. However, most phosphors are derived from transition metal complexes because of their intrinsic fast intersystem crossing (ISC) induced by strong spin–orbit coupling (SOC) constants of the heavy metal.
Metal-free RTP materials are rare and have become a promising field because they are inexpensive and environmentally friendly. This review summarizes organic molecular materials with long triplet lifetimes at room temperature from the perspective of whether they stem from a molecular or multi-component system. Among purely organic phosphors, heteroatoms are usually introduced into the backbone in order to boost the singlet–triplet ISC rate constant.
In multi-component systems, useful strategies such as host–guest, polymer matrix, copolymerization, and supramolecular assembly provide a rigid matrix to restrict nonradiative pathways thus realizing ultralong RTP.
Designing highly efficient purely organic phosphors at room temperature remains a challenge because of fast non-radiative processes and slow intersystem crossing (ISC) rates. The majority of them emit only single component phosphorescence. Herein, we have prepared 3 isomers (o, m, p-bromophenyl)-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)boranes. Among the 3 isomers (o-, m- and p-BrTAB) synthesized, the ortho-one is the only one which shows dual phosphorescence, with a short lifetime of 0.8 ms and a long lifetime of 234 ms in the crystalline state at room temperature. Based on theoretical calculations and crystal structure analysis of o-BrTAB, the short lifetime component is ascribed to the T\(^M_1\) state of the monomer which emits the higher energy phosphorescence. The long-lived, lower energy phosphorescence emission is attributed to the T\(^A_1\) state of an aggregate, with multiple intermolecular interactions existing in crystalline o-BrTAB inhibiting nonradiative decay and stabilizing the triplet states efficiently.
Using a new divergent approach, conjugated triarylborane dendrimers were synthesized up to the 2nd generation. The synthetic strategy consists of three steps: 1) functionalization, via iridium catalyzed C−H borylation; 2) activation, via fluorination of the generated boronate ester with K[HF\(_{2}\)] or [N(nBu\(_{4}\))][HF\(_{2}\)]; and 3) expansion, via reaction of the trifluoroborate salts with aryl Grignard reagents. The concept was also shown to be viable for a convergent approach. All but one of the conjugated borane dendrimers exhibit multiple, distinct and reversible reduction potentials, making them potentially interesting materials for applications in molecular accumulators. Based on their photophysical properties, the 1st generation dendrimers exhibit good conjugation over the whole system. However, the conjugation does not increase further upon expansion to the 2nd generation, but the molar extinction coefficients increase linearly with the number of triarylborane subunits, suggesting a potential application as photonic antennas.
Detection of metals in different environments with high selectivity and specificity is one of the prerequisites of the fight against environmental pollution with these elements. Pyrenes are well suited for the fluorescence sensing in different media. The applied sensing principle typically relies on the formation of intra- and intermolecular excimers, which is however limiting the sensitivity range due to masking of e. g. quenching effects by the excimer emission. Herein we report a highly selective, structurally rigid chemical sensor based on the monomer fluorescence of pyrene moieties bearing triazole groups. This sensor can quantitatively detect Cu\(^{2+}\), Pb\(^{2+}\) and Hg\(^{2+}\) in organic solvents over a broad concentrations range, even in the presence of ubiquitous ions such as Na\(^{+}\), K\(^{+}\), Ca\(^{2+}\) and Mg\(^{2+}\). The strongly emissive sensor's fluorescence with a long lifetime of 165 ns is quenched by a 1 : 1 complex formation upon addition of metal ions in acetonitrile. Upon addition of a tenfold excess of the metal ion to the sensor, agglomerates with a diameter of about 3 nm are formed. Due to complex interactions in the system, conventional linear correlations are not observed for all concentrations. Therefore, a critical comparison between the conventional Job plot interpretation, the method of Benesi-Hildebrand, and a non-linear fit is presented. The reported system enables the specific and robust sensing of medically and environmentally relevant ions in the health-relevant nM range and could be used e. g. for the monitoring of the respective ions in waste streams.
We synthesized new pyrene derivatives with strong bis(para ‐methoxyphenyl)amine donors at the 2,7‐positions and n ‐azaacene acceptors at the K‐region of pyrene. The compounds possess a strong intramolecular charge transfer, leading to unusual properties such as emission in the red to NIR region (700 nm), which has not been reported before for monomeric pyrenes. Detailed photophysical studies reveal very long intrinsic lifetimes of >100 ns for the new compounds, which is typical for 2,7‐substituted pyrenes but not for K‐region substituted pyrenes. The incorporation of strong donors and acceptors leads to very low reduction and oxidation potentials, and spectroelectrochemical studies show that the compounds are on the borderline between localized Robin‐Day class‐II and delocalized Robin‐Day class‐III species.
We synthesized a series of new mono‐, di‐, tri‐ and tetra‐substituted perylene derivatives with strong bis(para‐methoxyphenyl)amine (DPA) donors at the uncommon 2,5,8,11‐positions. The properties of our new donor‐substituted perylenes were studied in detail to establish a structure‐property relationship. Interesting trends and unusual properties are observed for this series of new perylene derivatives, such as a decreasing charge transfer (CT) character with increasing number of DPA moieties and individual reversible oxidations for each DPA moiety. Thus, (DPA)‐Per possesses one reversible oxidation while (DPA)\(_{4}\)‐Per has four. The mono‐ and di‐substituted derivatives display unusually large Stokes shifts not previously reported for perylenes. Furthermore, transient absorption measurements of the new derivatives reveal an excited state with lifetimes of several hundred microseconds, which sensitizes singlet oxygen with quantum yields of up to 0.83.
Post-synthetic shaping of porosity and crystal structure of Ln-Bipy-MOFs by thermal treatment
(2015)
The reaction of anhydrous lanthanide chlorides together with 4,4'-bipyridine yields the MOFs \(^{2}\)\(_{∞}\)[Ln\(_{2}\)Cl\(_{6}\)(bipy)\(_{3}\)]*2bipy, with Ln = Pr-Yb, bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine, and \(^{3}\)\(_{∞}\)[La\(_{2}\)Cl\(_{6}\)(bipy)\(_{5}\)]*4bipy. Post-synthetic thermal treatment in combination with different vacuum conditions was successfully used to shape the porosity of the MOFs. In addition to the MOFs microporosity, a tuneable mesoporosity can be implemented depending on the treatment conditions as a surface morphological modification. Furthermore, thermal treatment without vacuum results in several identifiable crystalline high-temperature phases. Instead of collapse of the frameworks upon heating, further aggregation under release of bipy is observed. \(^{3}\)\(_{∞}\)[LaCl\(_{3}\)(bipy)] and \(^{2}\)\(_{∞}\)[Ln\(_{3}\)Cl\(_{9}\)(bipy)\(_{3}\)], with Ln = La, Pr, Sm, and \(^{1}\)\(_{∞}\)[Ho\(_{2}\)Cl\(_{6}\)(bipy)\(_{2}\)] were identified and characterized, which can also exhibit luminescence. Besides being released upon heating, the linker 4,4'-bipyridine can undergo activation of C-C bonding in ortho-position leading to the in-situ formation of 4,4':2',2 '':4 '',4'''-quaterpyridine (qtpy). qtpy can thereby function as linker itself, as shown for the formation of the network \(^{2}\)\(_{∞}\)[Gd\(_{2}\)Cl\(_{6}\)(qtpy)\(_{2}\)(bipy)\(_{2}\)]*bipy. Altogether, the manuscript elaborates the influence of thermal treatment beyond the usual activation procedures reported for MOFs.
Efficient quadrupolar chromophores (A–pi–A) with triarylborane moieties as acceptors have been studied by the Marder group regarding their non‐linear optical properties and two‐photon absorption ability for many years. Within the present work, this class of dyes found applications in live‐cell imaging. Therefore, the dyes need to be water‐soluble and water‐stable in diluted aqueous solutions, which was examined in Chapter 2. Furthermore, the influence of the pi‐bridge on absorption and emission maxima, fluorescence quantum yields and especially the two-photon absorption properties of the chromophores was investigated in Chapter 3. In Chapter 4, a different strategy for the design of efficient two‐photon excited fluorescence imaging dyes was explored using dipoles (D–A) and octupoles (DA3). Finding the optimum balance between water‐stability and pi‐conjugation and, therefore, red‐shifted absorption and emission and high fluorescence quantum yields, was investigated in Chapter 5
In dieser Arbeit konnten 69 neue und neuartige Koordinationspolymere sowie Komplexe mit schwefelhaltigen Liganden auf Selten-Erd-Chlorid-Basis synthetisiert und strukturell charak-terisiert werden.
Durch die Umsetzung der Chloride mit dem Liganden Thiazol konnten bei Raumtemperatur, abhängig vom Ionenradius und der eingesetzten Menge Thiazol, sowohl Koordinationspolymere wie 1∞[LnCl3(thz)6]·thz (Ln = La, Ce), dimere Komplexe [Ln2Cl6(thz)8]·3(thz) (Ln = La, Ce, Pr, Nd), [Pr2Cl6(thz)8] sowie monomere Komplexe [LnCl3(thz)4]2·thz (Ln = Sm , Eu , Tb, Ho) erhalten werden. Mittels temperaturabhängiger Pulverdiffraktometrie und in-situ Infra-rotspektroskopie sowie DTA/TG-Messungen konnte exemplarisch an 1∞[LaCl3(thz)6]·thz und [Pr2Cl6(thz)8] gezeigt werden, dass stufenweise thermisch bedingt Thiazolmoleküle aus den Strukturen abgegeben werden bis hin zur Rückbildung des eingesetzten LnCl3. Unter der Vo-raussetzung, dass die flüchtige Komponente Thiazol resorbiert wird, ist daher ein Kreispro-zess denkbar. Ferner konnten zusätzlich wasserhaltige Phasen wie der vierkernige Cluster [Pr4Cl10(OH)2(thz)8(H2O)2] erhalten werden.
Durch die Zugabe eines geeigneten Linkermoleküls in das Reaktionssystem aus trivalenten Lanthanidchloriden und Thiazol konnten unter solvothermalen Bedingungen eine Vielzahl an Koordinationspolymeren und Komplexen erhalten werden. Als Linker oder als end-on Ligan-den eigneten sich sowohl eine Reihe an ditopischer Pyridylliganden 4,4'-Biypridin (bipy), 1,2-Di-(4-pyridyl)ethen (dpe), trans-1-(2-Pyridyl)-2-(4-pyridyl)ethylen (tppe), 1,2-Di-(4-pyridyl)ethan (dpa), sowie die Diazine Pyrazin (pyz) und Pyrimidin (pym) oder auch Azole wie 1,2,4-Triazol (tzH) und Pyrazol (pzH). Mittels Einkristallstrukturanalyse und pulverdiffrakto-metrischer Methoden konnten die dreidimensionalen Gerüstverbindungen 3∞[LnCl3(dpa)2]·thz (Ln = Ce - Sm, Gd - Lu), die Schichtstrukturen 2∞[Ln2Cl6(bipy)3(thz)2]·thz (Ln = La, Ce), 2∞[LnCl3(tzH)2(thz)]·thz (Ln = Pr, Sm - Gd) und die strangartigen Koordinationspolymere 1∞[LnCl3(bipy)(thz)2]·thz (Ln = Pr, Nd), 1∞[LnCl3(bipy)(thz)2]·thz (Ln = Sm, Eu - Er, Yb), 1∞[Ln2Cl6(dpe)2(thz)4]·dpe (Ln = Ce, Nd), 1∞[LnCl3(dpe)(thz)2]· 0.5 (dpe) 0.5 (thz) (Ln = Sm, Gd - Dy, Er, Yb), 1∞[HoCl3(dpe)(thz)2]·thz, 1∞[La2Cl6(dpa)(thz)6], 1∞[Pr2Cl6(pyz) (thz)6], 1∞[Ln2Cl6(tzH)4(thz)2] (Ln = Pr, Sm, Gd) sowie die Komplexe [LnCl3(tppe)2(thz)2] (Ln = Nd, Tb, Ho, Er), [Ln2Cl6(pyz)(thz)6]·2(thz) (Ln = Tb, Er), [Ln2Cl6(pym)2(thz)4] (Ln = Tb , Er), [LnCl3(pzH)3(thz)2] (Ln = Pr, Gd) charakterisiert werden.
Ferner konnten die erhaltenen Verbindungen weitestgehend auf ihre photolumineszenz-spektroskopischen sowie thermischen Eigenschaften hin untersucht werden. Außerdem konn-ten auch durch direkte Schwefelkoordination an die Ln3+-Zentren eindimensionale Koordina-tionspolymere 1∞[PrCl2(amt)(py)3] (amt- = 3-Amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazolat), [HNEt3]1∞[LnCl2(amt)2] (Ln = Ho, Er) und Komplexe [LnCl2(Mbim)(py)3]·py (Ln = Y, Er; Mbim = 2-Mercaptobenzimdiazolat) generiert werden
