Three triazine-based europium(III) complexes were synthesized that demonstrated strong two-photon induced europium emission with a high two-photon absorption cross-section. The modified triazine ligand of complex 3 initiated over 100% enhancement of the two-photon absorption cross-section (σ(2): 320 GM) when compared with complex 1 (σ(2): 128 GM) in a solution of DMSO. Europium complex 3 is also stable in vitro, and power-dependence curves were obtained in vitro to confirm the two-photon-induced f-f emission in HeLa cells.
三种基于三嗪的铕(III)配合物被合成出来,它们表现出很强的双光子诱导铕发射,具有很高的双光子吸收截面。与配合物 1(σ(2): 128 GM)相比,配合物 3 的改性三嗪配体在 DMSO 溶液中使双光子吸收截面(σ(2): 320 GM)提高了 100%以上。铕配合物 3 在体外也很稳定,并且在体外获得了功率依赖性曲线,以确认 HeLa 细胞中的双光子诱导 f-f 发射。
