ENHANCEMENT OF ENERGY TRANSFER FROM THE TERMINAL CHROMOPHORE OF POLYETHER TO EUROPIUM CATION(Ⅲ)VIA COMPLEXATION

The fluorescence spectra of naphthalene end-labelled polyethylene glycol)(N-P_nN) in methanol solution in the presence of europium cation(Ⅲ) was investigated. Selective excitation of the naphthalene group of N-P_n-N re-sults in the emission of europium cation. suggesting that the polyether chain complexes with europium cation, thus efficient energy transfer from naphthalene chromophore to europium cation occurs. Photoirradiation of N-P-N in solution leads to intramolecular dimerization of the two terminal naphthalene groups to give a crown ether. The complexation of this photochemically synthesized crown ether and europium cation was also studied.

Two-photon microscopy and spectroscopy of lanthanide bioprobes.

The linear and non-linear photophysical properties of tris-dipicolinate europium and terbium complexes (absorption, emission, lifetime, luminescence induced by two-photon absorption) are studied in the crystalline state as well as in protein derivative crystals and compared to those in solution. Upon laser irradiation at 532 nm, luminescence of terbium is induced by a two-photon antenna effect, whereas luminescence of europium results from one-photon absorption in forbidden f-f transitions. Finally, linear and two-photon microscopy imaging experiments on biological and bio-inspired crystals are performed. These first proof-of-concept experiments open the way for the development of time-resolved non-linear microscopy that should combine the advantages of lanthanide luminescence (long lifetime, sharp emission bands, insensitivity to oxygen) with those of confocal biphotonic excitation (near-IR excitation, 3D resolution and reduced photodamage).

Solution Chemistry of Europium(III) Aqua Ion at Micromolar Concentrations as Probed by Direct Excitation Luminescence Spectroscopy

Direct excitation europium(III) luminescence spectroscopy is used to study the speciation of aqueous europium(III) ions at micromolar concentrations and near neutral pH. The pH and concentration dependence of the europium(III) ⁷F₀→⁵D₀ excitation peak is consistent with the formation of both mononuclear and dinuclear europium(III) hydroxide complexes at pH 6.5. Luminescence intensity and lifetime quenching studies in the presence of Nd^III at pH 5.0 and 6.5 support the formation of a dinuclear complex at pH 6.5. Steady state excitation and time‐resolved luminescence spectroscopy are consistent with the formation of innersphere nitrate and fluoride complexes, but outersphere perchlorate and chloride complexes at pH 6.5 and 5.0.

Solid complexes of rare earth nitrates and picrates with a new amide ligand, 1,6-bis[(2'-benzylaminoformyl)phenoxyl]hexane (L) have been prepared. These complexes are characterized by elemental analysis, UV-vis spectra and IR spectra. The fluorescent and luminescent properties of the Eu(III) and Tb(III) nitrates and picrates complexes in solid state are also investigated. Under the excitation of UV light, these complexes except Tb(III) picrate complex exhibit characteristic emission of europium and terbium ions. The influence of the counter anion on the fluorescent intensity is also discussed.     

Design, synthesis and evaluation of ratiometric probes for hydrogencarbonate based on europium emission

A series of cationic, zwitterionic and anionic macrocyclic europium complexes has been prepared incorporating a N or C- linked acridone chromophore that allows sensitisation of Eu emission following excitation at 390-410 nm. Each of these complexes selectively binds bicarbonate at physiological pH and reversible binding is signalled by a change in the form and relative intensity of the Eu emission spectrum. Affinity for bicarbonate is regulated by overall complex charge and falls within the range required for intracellular or extracellular analyses. Monitoring the ratio of the intensity of Eu emission at up to three wavelengths, e.g. 618/588 or 618/702 nm allows the solution concentration of bicarbonate to be deduced in a background of competing anions such as lactate, citrate and phosphate. Preliminary screens reveal the complexes to be non-toxic to NIH-3T3 cells and to be taken inside the cell, encouraging further study.     

Synthesis and infrared and luminescence spectra of rare earth complexes with a new hexapodal ligand

Solid complexes of rare earth nitrates and picrates with a new hexapodal ligand, 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexa{[(2'-benzylamino-formyl)phenoxyl]methyl}-benzene (L) have been prepared. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR and molar conductivity. At the same time, the luminescence properties of the Eu(III) and Tb(III) nitrates and picrates complexes in solid state were also investigated. Under the excitation of UV light, these complexes exhibited characteristic emission of europium and terbium ions. The influence of the counter anion on the luminescent intensity was also discussed.     

The luminescence response of diamine-liganded europium complexes upon resonant and pre-resonant excitation

The luminescence of four europium thenoyltrifluoroacetonate complexes containing diamine ligands is studied in solutions. The compounds are resonantly excited in the ligand absorption band by means of high-power nanosecond UV laser pulses. Additionally, a continuous light source is also used for resonant, as well as pre-resonant excitation of the complexes. The luminescence response characterizes the synthesized europium coordination complexes as emissive compounds suitable for fluorometric applications. Related to the possible usefulness of the diamine-liganded Eu complexes as luminescent labels for sensing and imaging of biological molecules, the luminescence response of these compounds upon UV excitation was probed also in aqueous media.     

Synthesis and infrared and fluorescence spectral properties of luminescent terbium and europium complexes with open-chain carboxylate crown ethers

Two open-chain carboxylate crown ether ligands and their terbium(III) and europium(III) complexes were synthesized and characterized. The terbium and europium ions were found to coordinate to the carboxylate oxygens. The fluorescence properties of europium complexes in the solid state and terbium complexes in the solid state and in the organic solvent were studied in detail, respectively. Under the excitation of ultraviolet light, strong green fluorescence of solid terbium complexes and red fluorescence of solid europium complexes were observed. These observations show that the two ligands favor energy transfer to the emitting energy level of Tb(3+). Some factors that influencing the fluorescent intensity were also discussed.     

Luminescent properties of PP and LDPE films and rods doped with the Eu(III)‐La(III) complex

The work is devoted to luminescent properties of trivalent lanthanide complexes dispersed in thermoplastic host matrices. Polyethylene films and polypropylene‐rods, both doped with these complexes, were manufactured using an extrusion technique. Two kinds of dopants were used: Eu(III)‐thenoyltrifluoroacetone‐1,10‐phenanthroline complex (1) and Eu(III)‐La(III)‐1,10‐phenanthroline complex (2). Absorption, excitation, emission spectra and lifetime of luminescence were studied. The impact of the polymer matrix on the emission spectra was investigated. Emission spectra of the films were studied at room and helium temperatures. Time‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF‐SIMS) surface mapping showed that in the Eu(III)‐La(III) complex europium forms islands (clusters) with a dimension of 1 µm, whereas lanthanum was dispersed more uniformly in the polymer matrix. Dependence of emission intensity on the excitation was determined. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Photochemical behavior of luminescent compositions based on antimony(III) and europium(III) complexes in high-pressure polyethylene

Luminescent and photochemical properties of polymer compositions based on the Eu(NO₃)₃(Phen)₂ complex and complexes of antimony(III) halides with diphenylguanidine are investigated. It is found that high-pressure polyethylene (HPPE) containing europium(III) and antimony(III) complexes in combination exhibits efficient transfer of electronic excitation energy from antimony(III) levels to europium(III) levels and photosensitization of europium(III) luminescence. It is shown that the europium(III) and antimony(III) complexes increase the stability of HPPE to UV radiation.     

Anomalous green emission and energy transfer in the n,n-dimethylformamide/hydrochloric acid/europium chloride system

The unusual green photoluminescence (PL) of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)/hydrochloric acid (HCl)/europium chloride (EuCl3) solutions discovered earlier was investigated in more detail to clarify the emission mechanism. It was revealed that the DMF/HCl pair alone can yield a green PL band under UV excitation, and the emission has features of that of excimers. The addition of EuCl3 salt to the solution further stimulates the green emission. The quantum yield of the line emission of Eu3+ ions at 592 and 612 nm is also affected by the presence of HCl in the solution. Both the green emission band and Eu3+ emission lines possess a common channel of excitation at approximately 280 nm. This channel is the only source for the green emission band and an additional source for the Eu3+ emission lines, which can also be stimulated through a conventional Eu3+ excitation channel at 394 nm. The common excitation channel was found to be time-dependent, and its excitation maximum gradually shifts to longer wavelengths. Changes in the PL profiles of europium ions were also observed depending on the presence of HCl and the solution aging.

A cationic lanthanide complex binds selectively to phosphorylated tyrosine sites, aiding NMR analysis of the phosphorylated insulin receptor peptide fragment

The binding of two cationic europium complexes to a differentially phosphorylated insulin receptor peptide has been studied by emission spectroscopy and (31)P NMR and (1)H NMR TOCSY methods. Analysis of the europium emission and NMR spectral data was consistent with the presence of species in slow exchange on the NMR and emission timescales, in agreement with selective binding of the lanthanide ion to the phospho-tyrosine site, allowing such complexes to be considered as prototypical chemoselective paramagnetic derivatising agents.
