Abstract :
A series of mono-, di- and trinuclear complexes of Eu and Tb was designed to study the influence of the number of Ln emitting centers on the luminescence properties of discrete polynuclear complexes. The complexes are based on a cyclen scaffold, functionalized by two picolinic acid pendant arms. These coordinating units are separated by a 1,3-dimethylbenzene spacer for the dinuclear complex and a 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene bridge in the case of the trinuclear complex. The synthesis and characterization of the ligands is presented, together with the preparation and spectroscopic characterization of the complexes. The luminescence properties of the complexes were determined by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy and steady-state and time resolved luminescence spectroscopy in buffered aqueous solutions. Comparison of the electronic absorption spectra showed that the absorption properties can be considered as almost extensive parameters within experimental errors, as expected for electronically non-conjugated systems. A small drop of both the excited state luminescence lifetimes and the luminescence quantum yields was observed for the trinuclear complexes in the case of Tb. To understand this behavior, theoretical HF (Hartree Fock) calculations were performed for the three complexes. Models indicate that the average intermetallic distance in the dinuclear complex is almost the same as in the trinuclear one, disfavoring a possible distance dependence of the observed phenomena.[:]
