The present work introduces the series of thiacalix[4]arenes (HL) bearing different upper-rim substituents (R = H, Br, NO) for rational design of ligands providing an antenna-effect on the NIR Yb-centered luminescence of their Yb complexes. The unusual inclusive self-assembly of HL (Br) through Brπ interactions is revealed through single-crystal XRD analysis. Thermodynamically favorable formation of dimeric complexes [2Yb:2HL] leads to efficient sensitizing of the Yb luminescence for HL (Br, NO), while poor sensitizing is observed for ligand HL (H). X-ray analysis of the single crystal separated from the basified DMF solutions of YbCl and HL(NO) has revealed the transformation of the dimeric complexes into [4Yb:2L] ones with a cubane-like cluster structure. The luminescence characteristics of the complexes in the solutions reveal the peculiar antenna effect of HL(R = NO), where the triplet level at 567 nm (17,637 cm) arisen from ILCT provides efficient sensitizing of the Yb luminescence.
本工作介绍了一系列在上缘带有不同取代基(R = H、Br、NO)的硫杂杯[4]芳烃(HL),用于合理设计配体,这些配体对其Yb配合物的近红外Yb中心发光具有天线效应。通过单晶XRD分析揭示了HL(Br)通过Brπ相互作用进行的不寻常的包结自组装。热力学上有利形成的二聚体配合物[2Yb:2HL]导致HL(Br,NO)对Yb发光的有效敏化,而对于配体HL(H)则观察到较差的敏化效果。对从YbCl和HL(NO)的碱化DMF溶液中分离出的单晶进行的X射线分析表明,二聚体配合物转变为具有立方烷状簇结构的[4Yb:2L]配合物。溶液中配合物的发光特性揭示了HL(R = NO)独特的天线效应,其中源于ILCT的567 nm(17,637 cm)处的三重态能级对Yb发光提供了有效的敏化。
