Abstract:
Several lanthanide bis(salicylato) borate (BSBs) compounds were synthesized from anhydrous lanthanide chlorides and pyridine (py). The reactions start with the formation of small complexes, as indicated by [ErCl2(py)(4)(BSB)], on to 1D polymers (1)(infinity)[Ln(BSB)(3)(py)(2)] (Ln = Y, La-Nd, Sm) with a reduced py content. As the lanthanide radii contract along the lanthanide (Ln) series, the formation of 2D networks of the constitution (2)(infinity)[Ln(BSB)(3)(py)] (Ln = Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy, Er) is observed with the further release of py. The coordination polymers exhibit intense photoluminescence from the UV to the near-infrared (NIR) re-gion through lanthanide-specific 4f-4f emission for the Nd3+, Sm3+, Eu3+, Tb3+, and Dy3+ species. The emission is remarkable for the Dy3+ (yellow-white) and Nd3+ (NIR) species owing to the sensitizer effects of the [BSB]-anion, which shows energy transfer to most Ln ions. For the Ce3+ species, the participation of 5d states is observed and produces parity-allowed broadband 5d-4f emission. The bis(salicylato) borate ligand shows fluorescence in the UV with a short lifetime of only 2 ns, which makes the energy transfer in the other Ln compounds remarkable and marks it as versatile sensitizer for these metal ions.
