RESUMO
A high-luminescent, blue-light excitable europium(III) coordination complex, [Eu(µ2-OC2H5)(btfa)(NO3)(phen)]2phen (1) {btfa = benzoyl trifluoroacetone, phen = 1,10-phenantroline}, has been synthesized and investigated. The complex was characterized by infrared (IR) and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. The PL emission spectra of powder samples registered in a range of 10.7-300 K exhibit characteristic metal-centered luminescence bands, assigned to internal radiative transitions of the Eu3+ ion, 5D1â7Fj and 5D0â7Fj (j = 0-4). The high-resolution spectrum of the transition 5D0â7F0 shows that it consists of two narrow components, separated by 0.96 meV, which indicates the presence in the matrix of two different sites of the Eu3+ ion. The splitting pattern of 5D0â7Fj (j = 0-4) transitions indicates that europium ions are located in a low-symmetry environment. The absolute quantum yield and the sensitization efficiency were determined to be 49.2% and 89.3%, respectively. The complex can be excited with low-cost lasers at around 405 nm and is attractive for potential applications in optoelectronics and biochemistry.
RESUMO
Based on solvothermal synthesis, self-assembly of the heptadentate 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(nicotinoylhydrazone) Schiff base ligand (H2L) and Zn(II) and/or Cd(II) salts has led to the formation of three homometallic [CdL]n (1), {[CdL]â0.5dmfâH2O}n (2) and {[ZnL]â0.5dmfâ1.5H2O}n (3), as well as two heterometallic {[Zn0.75Cd1.25L2]âdmfâ0.5H2O}n (4) and {[MnZnL2]âdmfâ3H2O}n coordination polymers. Compound 1 represents a 1D chain, whereas 2-5 are isostructural and isomorphous two-dimensional structures. The entire series was characterized by IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and emission measurements. 2D coordination polymers accommodate water and dmf molecules in their cage-shaped interlayer spaces, which are released when the samples are heated. Thus, three solvated crystals were degassed at two temperatures and their photoluminescent and adsorption-desorption properties were recorded in order to validate this assumption. Solvent-free samples reveal an increase in volume pore, adsorption specific surface area and photoluminescence with regard to synthesized crystals.
RESUMO
The vic-dioximes are compounds with various industrial uses and scientific applications. Many coordination compounds have been synthesized based on vic-dioximes. This study presents the synthesis and full characterization of two vic-dioximes based on dichloroglyoxime, p-aminobenzoic acid, and p-aminotoluene. Their structures were proved by IR, 1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectral analysis, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. One of the reported vic-dioximes, bis(di-p-aminotoluene)glyoxime mono-p-aminotoluene trihydrate showed good to moderate antimicrobial activity against both nonpathogenic gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria (Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas fluorescens), phytopathogenic (Xanthomonas campestris, Erwinia amylovora, E. carotovora) and the fungi (Candida utilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) at MIC - 70-150 µg/mL.
