Preparation and Luminescent Property of the Self-Assembled Nanoscale Network Systems Combined Tetracyanoplatinate(II)
Abstract:
Complexes 1 and 2 were obtained by the reaction of [Cu(L1)](ClO4)2 (1) or [Cu(L2)](ClO4)2 (2) (L1 = 8-acetyl-1,3,6,8,10,13,15-heptaazatricyclo[13.1.1.113,15]octadecane, L2 = 3,7-bis(2-aminoethyl)- 1,3,5,7-tetraazabicyclo[3.3.l]decane) with K2[Pt(CN)4] in water. The X-ray crystal structures show that the geometry around Cu(II) ions of 1 and 2 adopts a square-pyramid. Their one-dimensional and two-dimensional structures are constructed by the intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the macrocyclic ligand and anionic complex ions or water molecules and Pt-Pt interaction. They show luminescent property and luminescence quantum yields are 0.341 and 0.187 for 1 and 2 in solid, respectively.

When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
