Electronic structure and luminescent properties of antimony(III) complex compounds with nitrogen containing outer-sphere organic cations

摘要

X-Ray photoelectron (XPS) and luminescent spectroscopy have been used to investigate complex compounds of antimony(III) halides with nitrogen containing organic bases. Inequality of bonds of amine and imine groups was found by XPS to disappear when complexes of antimony(III) with N,N'-diphenylguanidine (Dphg) were formed. The appearance of N1s symmetric line when transiting from Dphg to the cation N,N'-diphenylguanidine (HDphg(+)) in complex compounds of antimony(III) testifies to this. The study performed demonstrates that electron density increment on the antimony(III) central atom (complexing agent) results in the bathochromic shift P-3(1) -> S-1(0) of the luminescence band of antimony(III) ion.
