Modified pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate acid ligands for sensitization of near-infrared luminescence from lanthanide ions (Ln3+ = Pr3+, Nd3+, Gd3+, Dy3+, Er3+)

Modified pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate acid ligands for sensitization of near-infrared luminescence from lanthanide ions (Ln3+ = Pr3+, Nd3+, Gd3+, Dy3+, Er3+)
Modified pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate acid ligands for sensitization of near-infrared luminescence from lanthanide ions (Ln3+ = Pr3+, Nd3+, Gd3+, Dy3+, Er3+)
A detailed study of the ability of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (1) and its 4-mono- and 3,4,5-tri substituted analogues to sensitize emission from Pr3+, Nd3+, Gd3+, Dy3+ and Er3+ is presented. Sensitization of Ln3+ emission was demonstrated via the ligands in all complexes, excluding Gd3+, with emission
covering the spectral range from 500 nm to 1850 nm obtained with variation of the Ln3+ ion. From the study of the ligand-based photoluminescence obtained from Gd3+-complexes, and the relative ligand and Ln3+ emission obtained from the other complexes, the singlet and triplet state energies of complexes of
(1) are estimated to be at 3.1 eV and 2.6 eV respectively whilst for the 3,5-dibromo-substituted complexes (4) they are at 2.9 eV and 2.3 eV. Hypersensitivity of the Er3+ 4I15/22H11/2 and 4I15/24G11/2 intra
atomic transitions is also observed in the 4-chloro-substituted (3) complex. Enhanced sensitization of Nd3+ (ca. 5-fold) and Er3+ (ca. 2-fold) near-infrared emission is demonstrated for complexes of (3) and (4) respectively in comparison with those of (1).

Abstract

A detailed study of the ability of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (1) and its 4-mono- and 3,4,5-tri substituted analogues to sensitize emission from Pr3+, Nd3+, Gd3+, Dy3+ and Er3+ is presented. Sensitization of Ln3+ emission was demonstrated via the ligands in all complexes, excluding Gd3+, with emission
covering the spectral range from 500 nm to 1850 nm obtained with variation of the Ln3+ ion. From the study of the ligand-based photoluminescence obtained from Gd3+-complexes, and the relative ligand and Ln3+ emission obtained from the other complexes, the singlet and triplet state energies of complexes of
(1) are estimated to be at 3.1 eV and 2.6 eV respectively whilst for the 3,5-dibromo-substituted complexes (4) they are at 2.9 eV and 2.3 eV. Hypersensitivity of the Er3+ 4I15/22H11/2 and 4I15/24G11/2 intra
atomic transitions is also observed in the 4-chloro-substituted (3) complex. Enhanced sensitization of Nd3+ (ca. 5-fold) and Er3+ (ca. 2-fold) near-infrared emission is demonstrated for complexes of (3) and (4) respectively in comparison with those of (1).
