Hierarchical Self-Assembly of a Pyrene-Based Discrete Organoplatinum(Ⅱ) Double-Metallacycle with Triflate Anions via Hydrogen Bonding and Its Tunable Fluorescence Emission

摘要

Hierarchical self-assembly of discrete organoplatinum(Ⅱ) metallacycles has attracted considerable attention. However, the exact assembly mechanism involving non-covalent interactions has limited the formation and application of self-assembly due to the dynamics of platinum metallacycles. Herein, we report the hierarchical self-assembly of a pyrene-based discrete organoplatinum(Ⅱ) double-metallacycle that takes advantage of heteroligation-coordination-driven self-assembly and triflate anions' hydrogen bonding, which is extended into a 3-D supramolecular framework by the hydrogen-bonding interactions involving triflate anions. Furthermore, the assembled system displays tunable fluorescence emission and enhanced solid emission. The studies herein disclosed pave the way to prepare platinum(Ⅱ) metallacycle-based supramolecular functional materials.
