A hexaphenyltriphenylene-based hexatopic pyridyl ligand is designed and used to prepare three hexagonal prismatic metallacages via metal-coordination-driven self-assembly. Owing to the planar conjugated structures of the hexaphenyltriphenylene skeleton, such metallacages show good host-guest complexation with a series of emissive dyes, which have been further used to tune their emission in solution. Interestingly, based on their complementary emission colors, white light emission is achieved in a mixture of the host metallacages and the guests.
设计了一种基于六苯基三亚苯的六齿吡啶基配体,并通过金属配位驱动的自组装制备了三种六棱柱形金属笼。由于六苯基三亚苯骨架的平面共轭结构,此类金属笼与一系列发光染料表现出良好的主客体络合作用,这些染料已进一步用于调节它们在溶液中的发射。有趣的是,基于它们互补的发射颜色,在主体金属笼和客体的混合物中实现了白光发射。
