Comprehensive study of the luminescent properties and lifetimes of Eu(3+) and Tb(3+) chelated with various ligands in aqueous solutions: influence of the synergic agent,the surfactant and the energy level of the ligand triplet

The formation and the properties of luminescent complexes of europium and terbium with a variety of organic ligands have been investigated in aqueous solutions. The ligands used include model compounds such as thenoyltrifluoroacetone and pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid and organic analytes of biological or pharmaceutical interest. It is shown that the formation and the luminescent properties of these complexes depend at first on several parameters including the pH and the buffer, the synergic agent and the surfactant. In neutral solutions, trioctylphosphine oxide in the presence of Triton X-100 may act as a co-ligand to promote complex formation and protect the complex from radiationless deactivation processes. Working in slightly alkaline solutions in the presence of EDTA and hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride may induce the deprotonation of a second coordinating group and favour the formation of a new complex with stronger luminescent properties. In both cases, the luminescence lifetimes are then ultimately related to the energy gap between the ligand triplet and the resonance level of the ion and to the number of water molecules coordinated to the lanthanide ion.     

Luminescent properties of europium(III) and terbium(III) complexes with para- and ortho-ethoxybenzoic acids

The luminescent properties of europium(III) and terbium(III) complexes with para- and ortho-ethoxybenzoic acids are studied. The excitation energies of the triplet states of ligands are determined, a hypothesis is made about the efficient luminescence of europium(III) and terbium(III) complexes, the geometry of the coordination polyhedron of a europium complex is established, and the luminescence quantum yields of the complexes in solution are determined.     

Luminescent nanoparticles prepared by encapsulating lanthanide chelates to silica sphere

The luminescent nanoparticles were prepared by encapsulating the [LnL₄]^? (Ln = Eu, Tb; L = BTFA, HFAA, TTFA, TFAA) complexes anion into the silicon framework. We firstly synthesized a series of novel siloxy-bearing lanthanide complex precursor, and then encapsulated them into the silica sphere by a modified Stöber process. As a result, four europium and two terbium tetrakis β-diketonate complexes functionalized silica sphere nanoparticles were obtained and characterized in detail using Fourier transform infrared spectra, X-ray diffraction, scanning electronic microscope, thermogravimetric analysis, luminescence excitation and emission spectroscopy, luminescence lifetime measurements, and diffuse reflectance UV–Vis spectroscopy. The result shows that these luminescent nanoparticles maintain the distinctive luminescence character of lanthanide chelate including broad excitation spectra, line-like emission spectra, high quantum efficiency, and long luminescent lifetime, which makes them great potential application in the synthesis of luminescent nanoparticle.

The luminescent core‐shell material was further functionalized with silylated terbium(III) complex and the obtained material was used as the luminescence sensing of dipicolinic acid (DPA), which is a major constituent of many pathogenic spore‐forming bacteria.

Recent advances in the sensitized luminescence of organic europium complexes

In this paper, recent advances in the synthesis, mechanism of sensitized emission, and luminescent properties of organic lanthanide complexes are reviewed. Stress is put on the progress in the development of organic europium complexes and their nanoparticles with excellent visible-light-sensitized and two-photon-sensitized Eu^III luminescence properties. These are of increasing importance because bioanalysis or bioimaging techniques based on such labeled materials will combine the advantages of high sensitivity, high signal-to-noise ratio, deep penetration, and low photodamage to biological samples. In addition, the application of long-wavelength-sensitized luminescence of organic lanthanide complexes and their nanoparticles in bioimaging is discussed.     

Luminescence studies on europium-strontium phthalate system

New lanthanide luminescence materials were prepared. The main component lanthanide chelates generally need a relatively high content of rare earth. Inorganic luminescence materials only need low rare earth concentration using doped method. Similarly, lanthanide chelates can be added to complex matrix by doped method. In this way, low rare earth concentration emission was successful in the lanthanide chelates system as well. The influence of europium ion concentration on luminescence intensities was discussed. When the europium ion weight in the complex is only about 0.6%, the sample exhibits good luminescence properties. The fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared spectra, micro-Raman and electron spin resonance spectra of the samples were measured. And a possible luminescence mechanism was suggested by the inorganic doped mechanism and the luminescence of lanthanide complexes together.     

The luminescent properties of divalent europium complexes of crown ethers and cryptands

The luminescent properties of divalent europium complexes with crown ether, azacrown ether, N-pivot-azacrown ether, and cryptand in methanol or water have been systematically investigated under UV irradiation. These divalent europium complexes show greatly enhanced emission from 417 nm to 488 nm in the visible blue region in comparison with that of the methanol solution of EuCl₂. The aqueous solution of EuCl₂ is non-luminescent. This obvious distinction in luminescent properties between the macrocyclic ligand-coordinated divalent europium and uncoordinated divalent europium is attributed to the “insulation effect” of Eu²⁺ ion from the solvent molecules of CH₃OH and H₂O by the macrocyclic crown ether or cryptand encapsulation to divalent europium. Moreover, these macrocyclic ligands provide an additional restriction to the electronic charge expansion of the excited Eu²⁺. This also contributes to the enhancement of the Eu²⁺ luminescence. Among all the investigated macrocyclic ligands, 15-crown-5 (15C5) affords the largest enhancement to the Eu²⁺ emission. The intensity of the Eu²⁺–15C5 complex is 690 times that of the EuCl₂ methanol solution with the same Eu²⁺ concentration. This special emission enhancement effect is related to the particular complex composition of 1:3 (Eu²⁺:15C5) and corresponding configuration of Eu²⁺–15C5 complex in methanol. Concerning the mechanism, the luminescence enhancement of divalent europium by complexation with these macrocyclic crown ether or cryptand ligands is found to be initiated from the decrease in non-radiative rate constant rather than from the increase in radiative one.

The divalent europium complexes of methacrylate polymeric polyether derivatives such as 15C5-, 18-crown-6- (18C6), and cryptand [2.2.1]- or [2.2.2]-containing polymer and copolymer have also been prepared. Their luminescent properties in solid state have been studied to aim for practical application. As a similar situation to the simple polyether complexes, the divalent europium complex with 15C5-containing polymer or copolymer shows the largest luminescent enhancement effect. Its emission intensity reaches about 20% that of the commercial inorganic luminescence product CaWO₄:Pb (NBS 1026). In addition, the doping effect of several divalent ions, namely Mg, Sr, Ba and Zn in polymeric complexes, has also been investigated according to the luminescence concentration quenching mechanism in solid state luminescence materials. The emission intensity of 15C5-containing polymer europium(II) complex is raised to twice stronger by doping of Zn²⁺ ion.     

Development of responsive lanthanide-based magnetic resonance imaging and luminescent probes for biological applications

Lanthanide complexes have unique chemical characteristics compared with typical organic complexes, and have recently attracted much interest because of the expanding need for new bioanalytical sensors. For example, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) permits noninvasive three-dimensional imaging inside opaque organisms, and gadolinium ion (Gd(3+)) complexes have become important tools as MRI contrast agents. However, most of them are nonspecific, and report solely on anatomy. Therefore, responsive MRI contrast agents, so-called "smart" MRI contrast agents whose ability to relax water protons is greatly enhanced by recognition of a particular biomolecule, have great potential for elucidating biological phenomena. On the other hand, lanthanide complexes such as europium (Eu(3+)) and terbium (Tb(3+)) complexes have excellent luminescence properties for biological applications, i.e., long luminescence lifetime of the order of milliseconds and a large Stoke's shift of >200 nm. Their long-lived luminescence is especially suitable for time-resolved measurements, because the interference from short-lived background fluorescence and scattered light rapidly decays to a negligible level after a pulse of excitation light is applied, and the emitted light can be collected after an appropriate delay time. These luminescent lanthanide complexes have already found commercial use as highly sensitive luminescent probes in heterogeneous and homogeneous assays. This paper reviews our research on the design and synthesis of responsive lanthanide-based MRI and luminescent probes for advanced bioimaging.
