Silver(I) Complexes with Dithioether Ligands: Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Fluorescence Properties

Two new dithioether ligands, 1,4‐bis[(phenylsulfanyl)methyl]naphthalene ( L¹ ), and 4,4′‐bis[(tert‐butylsulfanyl)methyl]biphenyl ( L² ) were synthesized and their silver(I) complexes were studied. Both Ag^I complexes, [Ag L¹ (NO₃)]_n ( 1 ) and [Ag L² (NO₃)]₂ ( 2 ), were synthesized at ambient temperature and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. Single‐crystal X‐ray analysis shows that complex 1 has a one‐dimensional helical chain structure with the neutral repeating unit [Ag(μ₂‐ L¹ )(NO₃)], whereas complex 2 has a centrosymmetrical neutral dinuclear structure. Moreover, complexes 1 and 2 are further extended into three‐dimensional supramolecular frameworks by hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking interactions, respectively. In addition, complexes 1 and 2 display strong blue emission in the solid state at room temperature.     

Four Metal Complexes Based on Bulky Imidazole Ligands: Solvothermal Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Fluorescence Properties

In order to explore the influences of (de‐)protonation of the imidazole ring on the structural diversity of the resulting complexes, the imidazole‐based ligands 4, 5‐diphenylimidazole (Hdpi) and 1H‐phenanthro[9, 10‐d]imidazole (Hpi) were utilized as bulky building blocks to construct four complexes by solvothermal reactions, i.e. [Ag(Hdpi)₂](NO₃) · (H₂O) ( 1 ), [Cu(dpi)]_∞ ( 2 ), [Cu(Hpi)(NO₃)]_∞ ( 3 ), and [(H₂pi)(NO₃)] · H₂O ( 4 ). In complex 1 , two Hdpi ligands adopt a monodentate pattern and coordinate with one Ag^I ion to form a mononuclear unit, which is further connected by hydrogen bonds into a 1D supramolecular helix. The deprotonated dpi ligand of 2 acts in bidentate mode, and bridges Cu^I ions to afford a 1D chain. In 3 , the NO₃^– ion, acts as a monodentate bridging ligand and joins Cu^I ions to generate a 1D chain. The Hpi ligand employs a monodentate mode to bond with Cu^I ions of the 1D chain. 4 is protonated and two H₂pi nitrogen atoms are free of coordination. Interestingly, hydrogen bonds among the NO₃^– ion, the H₂pi ligand, and the water molecule yield a macro ring R⁴₄(14). The resulting structural diversity reveals that the (de‐)protonation of imidazole ring directly steers the coordination number of ligand, and thus causes a significant effect on the structure, especially the dimensionality. Furthermore, the solid‐state fluorescence properties of the free ligands and compounds 1 – 4 were studied at room temperature.
