Peculiarities of the excitation energy transfer in europium and terbium aromatic carboxylates and nitrate complexes with sulfoxides: Blocking effect

The influence of modification of the aromatic ligands on the excitation energy transfer to Ln³⁺ ions in europium and terbium carboxylates and nitrates was examined. The luminescence excitation spectra of three groups of the europium and terbium compounds: phenyl-, diphenyl-, triphenylacetates, phenoxyacetates and triphenylpropionates; 1- and 2-naphthylcarboxylates and 2-naphthoxyacetates; lanthanide nitrates with diarylsulfoxides (diphenyl- and dibenzylsulfoxides) and dialkylsulfoxides were investigated. The spectra of adducts of terbium phenylcarboxylates with 1,10-phenanthroline were also analyzed. The effect of the aliphatic bridges, which decouple the π–π- or p–π-conjugation in the ligand, on the energy transfer to Ln³⁺ ions (so-called blocking effect) was investigated. It was shown, that this decoupling leads to significant lowering of the energy of “ligand–metal ion” charge transfer states (LM CTS) in the europium carboxylate salts, just down to 27,800 cm⁻¹ in europium 2-naphthoxyacetate. As a consequence, the probability of the LM CTS participation in the excitation energy dissipation processes increases. A channel of the excitation energy dissipation in the region of 31,750 cm⁻¹ related to ligand electronic transitions was found in the europium and terbium nitrates with sulfoxides. It was demonstrated that a part of the energy absorbed by the aromatic ligand having aliphatic bridge can be emitted as the ligand fluorescence.

Synthesis and cofluorescence of Eu(Y) complexes with salicylic acid and o-phenanthroline

A series of dinuclear complexes of salicylic acid (HSal) and o-phenanthroline (Phen) with different molar ratios of Eu3+ to Y3+ have been synthesized. Their compositions are Eu(x)Y(1-x) (Sal)3(Phen) (x = 0 to approximately 1). Their UV spectra, IR spectra, and fluorescence spectra were studied. The UV spectra of the complexes reflect essentially absorption of the ligands for the fact that no obvious change of wavelength and band shape is found between the spectra of the complexes and that of the ligands except slight red shift. The IR absorption spectra indicate that salicylic acid is coordinated to the rare earth ions and chemical bonds are formed between rare earth ions and nitrogen atoms of o-phenanthroline. The fluorescence spectra of the complexes indicate that the fluorescence emission intensity of europium ion was enhanced by the addition of Y3+, which is referred to as cofluorescence. These facts show that not only the ligands but also the yttrium complex can transfer the absorbed energy to Eu3+ ion in the complexes. Formation of polynuclear complexes appears to be responsible for cofluorescence.
