Neodymium ternary complexes with 2,4,6-tri(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine: Synthesis, crystal structure and fluorescence property

摘要

Two neodymium beta-diketonates metal-organic complexes, Nd(TTA)(3) TPTZ (1) and Nd(BFA) 3 TPTZ (2), have been synthesized by using two beta-diketone ligands 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(2-thienyl)-1,3-butanedione (HTTA) and 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-phenyl-1,3-butanedione (HFBA), and a macrocyclic conjugate ligand, 2,4,6-tri(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TPTZ). The crystal structures of these two complexes were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The X-ray diffraction analysis showed that each neodymium ion in the two complexes formed a Nine-Coordinated structure with six oxygen atoms of HTTA (or HBFA) ligands and three nitrogen atoms of TPTZ ligand by the characteristic of triclinic with P1 (-) space group both. In the crystal structure of the two complexes, a very obvious aromatic donor-acceptor interaction can be observed between adjacent TPTZ ligand molecules, which play an important role in the formation of three-dimensional structures. The complexes were also characterized by infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric and fluorescence spectra. Fluorescence analysis showed that the two complexes exhibited characteristic neodymium-centered emission due to the significant antenna effect of these ligands. (C) 2019 Published by Elsevier B.V.
